by Horatius Bonar, 1808-1899 1. 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 quenched, 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 traveling days are done.
