I heard the voice of Jesus say
'Come unto me and rest.
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy head upon my chest.'
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 came 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!
