Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering

Oh my heart cries be an island
Take my hurting heart set myself apart
But your word says don’t let your heart be hardened
Make your peace with God,
and with the ones you’ve harmed

Oh
And Let Him reconcile your soul,
And Let Him make your body whole

Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering

Oh I long for, that sweet communion
So sing your praises high, long into the night
Sing Holy Holy God Almighty
And pray that we are one underneath His Son

Oh
And Let Him reconcile your soul,
And Let Him make your body whole

Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering
yeah

Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering

Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering

Oh come on come on

Come join the gathering
Come join the gathering
Lay your burden down and get rest for your soul
Here in the gathering
