I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say - Lyrics

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
so weary 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 trav'ling days are done
