I Heard the Voice of Jesus

Horatius Bonar

[Verse 1]
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 heard the voice of Jesus say
"Come unto me and rest
Lay down, thy weary one
Lay down thy head upon my breast"

[Verse 2]
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 3]
Take my yoke upon you and learn of me
For my yoke is easy
And my burdens are light
And my burdens are light
Take my yoke upon you and lеarn of me
For my yoke is easy
And my burdеns are light
And my burdens are light

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 5]
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
Till traveling days are done

[Verse 6]
Take my yoke upon you and learn of me
For my yoke is easy
And my burdens are light
And my burdens are light
Take my yoke upon you and learn of me
For my yoke is easy
And my burdens are light
And my burdens are light

[Verse 7]
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 heard the voice of Jesus say
"Come unto me and rest
Come unto me and rest
Come unto me and rest
Come unto me and rest"
