Hymn/Song Information

I heard the voice of Jesus say Come unto Me and




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.

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 all my journey's done done.
