Hymn 686
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Meter: D.C.M.
Scripture: Isa. 55:3
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 ma’de 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 trailing days are done.
