As some of you know my best friend Raymond died this past week. I wrote this song the day I heard and have been working very hard recording it. I wrote lyrics too. I am playing the melody on the guitar. All the percussion instruments are done by me. No loops or samples were used. An FYI, the word (to) in the bridge section has two pitches.

Guitar: Yairi Dreadnought Acoustic

Come and Rest

I am here, right before you
Come to Me and rest
I am here, right before you
Come to Me and rest

Come and rest your heart upon me now
Come and rest your weary soul
Come and rest your heart upon me now
For I am with you and always will be

The road is long and ever winding
Come to Me and rest
I feel your pain and know your longing
Come to me and rest

Come and rest your heart upon me now
Come and rest your weary soul
Come and rest your heart upon me now
For I am with you and always will be

Bridge

Just come (to) me, with all of your heart
and I shall give you peace

I am here, right before you
Come to Me and rest
I am here, right before you
Come to Me and rest

Come and rest your heart upon me now
Come and rest your weary soul
Come and rest your heart upon me now
For I am with you and always will be (Repeat)
