Edenbridge - I heard the voice of Jesus say
I heard the voice of Jesus say.
‘Come unto me and rest,
Lay down, thy 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 my 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 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 traveling days are done.
