1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
""Come unto Me and rest;
lay down, O weary one, lay down
your 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; your morn shall rise
and all your 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.
