I HEARD THE VOICE OF JESUS

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.

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 quenched, my soul revived,

And now I live in Him.

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 travelling days are done
