I say come, let us reason together.
I say come, lay your burdens down.
For you are weak, unworthy and unsanctified,
yet it’s you I seek, it’s for you I died.
And you can turn and walk away from this love.
You can throw down this gift from above.
But I say wait, let us reason together.
I say wait, lay your burdens down.
I say come, see the stars I made.
I say come, hear them sing to Me.
I say come, see the price I paid.
On the cross, you mean that much to Me.
And you can turn and walk away from this love.
You can throw down this gift from above.
But I say wait, let us reason together.
I say wait, lay your burdens down.
Was that enough? Was that enough?
Was that enough?
Enough for you?
More than enough. More than enough.
I give it all.
Just for you.
Now while you breathe…
… the breath I give you.
While I beg…
…and I beseech you.
Won’t you come…
…let us reason together?
Won’t you come…
… … lay your burdens down?
