I Heard the Voice

I heard the voice, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
I heard the voice, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
I heard the voice of Jesus say «Come unto me and rest
Lay down, O weary one, lay down your 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, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
I heard the voice, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
I heard the voice of Jesus say, «I am this dark world’s Light
Look unto me, your morn shall rise, and all your days be bright»
I looked to Jesus and I found in him my Star, my Sun
And in that light of life I’ll walk, 'til trav’ling days are done
I heard the voice, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
I heard the voice, the voice
I hear the voice, the voice
