The Lord’s Waiting Love

“Come to Me, all the weary and burdened! And I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28).

The Lord’s love knows no measure,
Down to earth He came,
Bearing countless sorrows,
Suffering without blame.

Upon the cross He offered
His life for sinners all,
A sacrifice unblemished—
He answered mercy’s call.

How boundless is His kindness,
Unchanging through the years,
His compassion flows eternal
To dry repentant tears.

O weary souls, draw nearer
To love that waits for you,
The Lord keeps constant vigil
With grace forever true.

Why linger in hesitation
When peace awaits your heart?
Trust in His gentle promise—
A new life can now start.

This poem is inspired by the words of the Vietnamese spiritual song “Tình Chúa Đang Chờ”:

The translation of the lyric into English:
The Lord’s Waiting Love

“Come to Me, all the weary and burdened! And I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28).

The Lord loves mankind,
He came down to this world,
bearing countless sorrows and pains.
Dying on the cross,
He bore all sins,
suffering in place of all humankind.

How great is the Lord’s love,
unchanging forever,
enduring for all time.
The world does not know
that the Lord is always merciful,
compassionate toward sinners.

O people, come quickly,
lean upon the Lord’s love.
He loves us deeply,
waiting day and night.
O people, come quickly,
why still hesitate?
Trust in the Lord,
and life will always be at peace.
