I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Appears in 1,237 hymnals Topics: Hunger and Thirst Lyrics: 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, So weary, worn, and sad; I found in him a resting place, And he has 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 trav'ling days are done. Scripture: Matthew 11:25-30 Used With Tune: [I heard the voice of Jesus say]

Can I doubt his tender mercy, Who through life has been my guide? Heav’nly peace, divinest comfort, Here by faith in him to dwell! For I know, whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well; For I know, whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well. 2 All the way my Savior leads me -- Cheers each winding path I tread, Gives me grace for ev'ry trial, Feeds me with the living bread. Though my weary steps may falter And my soul athirst may be, Gushing from the rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see; Gushing from the rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see. 3 All the way my Savior leads me -- O the fullness of his love! Perfect rest to me is promised In my Father’s house above. When my spirit, clothed immortal, Wings its flight to realms of day, This my song through endless ages: Jesus led me all the way; This my song through endless ages: Jesus led me all the way. Scripture: Exodus 16:31 Used With Tune: ALL THE WAY

Somber skies and howling tempests oft succeed a bright sunshine. In that land of perfect day, When the mists have rolled away, We will understand it better by and by. Refrain: By and by when the morning comes, When the saints of God are gathered home, We will tell the story how we've overcome; For we'll understand it better by and by. 2 We are often destitute Of the things that life demands. Want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands. We are trusting in the Lord, And according to his Word, We will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 3 Trials dark on ev'ry hand, And we cannot understand, All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed Promised Land. But he guides us with his eye And we'll follow till we die. For we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 4 Temptations, hidden snares Often take us unawares, And our hearts are made to bleed for some thoughtless word or deed. And we wonder why the test When we try to do our best, But we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 32:8 Used With Tune: BY AND BY
