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 travelling days are done.
