I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say

I heard the voice of Jesus say,"Come unto me and rest;Lay down, thou weary one, lay downThy 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 giveThe living water; thirsty one!Stoop down, and drink, and live."

I came to Jesus, and I drankOf 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 walkTill traveling days are done.
