I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Appears in 1,228 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 2:20 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.

If Your Beloved Son, O God

Author: Johann Heermann, 1585-1647 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 2:16 Lyrics: 1 If Your beloved Son, O God, Had not to earth descended And in our mortal flesh and blood Had not sin's power ended, Then this poor, wretched soul of mine In hell eternally would pine Because of my transgression. 2 But now I find sweet peace and rest; Despair no more reigns o'er me. No more am I by sin oppressed, For Christ has borne sin for me. Upon the cross for me He died That, reconciled, I might abide With You, my God, forever. 3 I trust in Him with all my heart; Now all my sorrow ceases. His words abiding peace impart; His blood from guilt releases. Free grace through Him I now obtain; He washes me from ev'ry stain, And pure I stand before Him. 4 All righteousness by works is vain; The Law brings condemnation. True righteousness by faith I gain; Christ's work is my salvation. His death, that perfect sacrifice, Has paid the all-sufficient price; In Him my hope is anchored. 5 My guilt, O Father, You have laid On Christ, Your Son, my Savior. Lord Jesus, You my debt have paid And gained for me God's favor. O Holy Spirit, Fount of grace, The good in me to You I trace; In faith and hope preserve me.
