A HYMN FOR THE 4TH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST
By Horatius Bonar, 1846

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 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 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’lling days are done. |
