and carry them in His bosom,
and gently lead those that are with young.

(Soprano)
Come unto Him, all ye that labour,
come unto Him that are heavy laden,
and He will give you rest.

Take His yoke upon you, and learn of Him,
for He is meek and lowly of heart,
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Matthew 11:28-29

His yoke is easy,
and his burden is light.
