I heard the voice of Je-sus say,

C7 F Gm Bb Csus C
“Come unto Me and rest;

F Bb2 Bb Gm7 C F G7 C
Lay down, thou wea-ry one, lay down

C7 F Gm Dm
Thy head up-on My breast.”

Dm Am Dm F Gm C F
I came to Je-sus as I was,

F Bb Csus C
Weary and worn and sad;

F Bb2 Gm F Dm7 C
I found in Him a rest-ing place,

C7 F Am Gm Dm
And He has made me glad.
[[Full Lyrics]] [Verse 1] 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. [Verse 2] 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 quench’d, my soul revived, And now I live in Him. [Verse 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.
