17. I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say
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, 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 lifegiving 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 trav'ling days are done.
