Jesus wrote in Matthew ‭11‬:‭28‬ ‭NIV‬‬ — “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

One of my favorite and more widely used hymns, “Spirit Song,” was written by John Wimber in 1979. You can read more on umcdiscipleship.org. Some of the lyrics sing, “Let Him have the things that hold you and his Spirit like a dove, will descend upon your life and make you whole.”

In reading our key verse I envision myself surrendering all my burdens over to God so that He can give me rest. 

As our week on hymns comes to a close, I thought by sharing this musical video we could sing the words ourselves. Watch as Greg Sungshik Shin guides us through the musical notes.

Let’s pray. Dear God, Thank You for a week of beautiful hymns. I, as Your lamb, ask that you fill me up on this Friday. I surrender all my burdens to You and ask for rest.

  1. I didn’t recognize the title of the song you mentioned, so I listened to it before getting out of bed this morning. It was an uplifting start to my day: I plan to learn to sing it. The background info about John Wimber was interesting: thanks for posting the link.
