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. |

What would life be like without the Comforter? I am forever thankful to Christ, our life.

We could go to Him for rest, to lay down our head on Him. We may come to Him weary, and worn, and sad but He can make us glad!

I heard this song the first time the day before my sister died. The first lines were a real comfort to me.

Such wonderful words!
"I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Behold, I freely give
The living water: thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live.""
I like the song because it reminds me to turn to Jesus in every aspect of my life.... happy or sad, lonely or glad... He's always here to remind us that He will never leave us.
