Traditional English melody
Text by Horatius Bonar, 1846
"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 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, 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."
