Verse 1 
  Em        C        G     D 
I heard the voice of Jesus say, 
      G    Am     D 
“Come unto me and rest; 
    Em       C     G        D 
lay down, O weary one, lay down 
     G      Am    Em 
your head upon my breast.” 
  G             D    G 
I came to Jesus as I was, 
   G      C         D 
so weary, worn, and sad; 
  Em       C      G       D 
I found in him a resting place, 
    G      Am      Em 
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 quenched, 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, your morn shall rise, 
and all your 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 traveling days are done.
