I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Come
unto Me and rest;
Lay
down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy
head upon My breast.”
I
came to Jesus as I was,
Weary
and worn and sad;
I
found in Him a resting place,
And
He has made me glad.
2
I
heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold,
I freely give
The
living water; thirsty one,
Stoop
down, and drink, and live.”
I
came to Jesus, and I drank
Of
that life giving stream;
My
thirst was quench'd, my soul revived,
And
now I live in Him.
3
I
heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I
am this dark world’s light;
Look
unto Me, thy morn shall rise,
And
all thy day be bright.”
I
looked to Jesus, and I found
In
Him my star, my sun;
And
in that light of life I’ll walk,
Till
trav'ling days are done.
