But God, who called me here Lelow, Will be forever mine.

The voice of Jesus.

John Newtɔn.

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 hath made me glad. 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.

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 all my journey's done.

Horatius Bonar,
