Listen from:
ABOVE the din of this restless world there sounds a blessed voice. Above the cry of contending parties, and the noise of clashing interests, it calls. It calls to thee, O weary sinner, and would enter thine ear and thy heart, bringing with it a great peace and a priceless blessing.
It is the voice of Jesus, saying as of old: “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:2828Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)). O tired heart, do not close thine ears to these words, let the music of them charm thee, and draw thee to His feet.
J.T.M.
