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, our 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 trav'ling days are done. SPANISH - 1 Oí la voz del Salvador Decir con tierno amor: "¡Oh! ven a mí, descansarás; Soy tu consolador." Cansado estaba, y sin tardar, A Cristo acudí, Y luego dulce alivio y pas Por fe yo recibí. 2 Oí la voz del Salvador Decir: "Venid, bebed; Yo soy la fuente de salud Que apaga toda sed." Con sed de Dios, del vivo Dios, Busqué al Salvador; Lo hallé, mi sed el apagó, Y hoy vivo en mi Señor. 3 Oí su dulce voz decir: "Del mundo soy la luz; "¡Oh! mírame, te salvaré; Hay vida por mi cruz." Mirando a Cristo, luego en él Mi norte y sol hallé; Y en esa luz de vida y paz Por siempre viviré.

I Lay My Sins on Jesus

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 560 hymnals Scripture: John 1:29 Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus, The spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us From the accursed load. I bring my guilt to Jesus To wash my crimson stains White in His blood most precious, Till not a spot remains. 2 I lay my wants on Jesus, All fulness dwells in Him; He heals all my diseases, He doth my soul redeem. I lay my griefs on Jesus, My burdens and my cares; He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. 3 I rest my soul on Jesus, This weary soul of mine; His right hand me embraces, I on His breast recline. I love the name of Jesus, Immanuel, Christ the Lord; Like fragrance on the breezes, His name abroad is poured. 4 I long to be like Jesus, Meek, loving, lowly, mild; I long to be like Jesus, The Father's holy Child. I long to be with Jesus Amid the heav'nly throng, To sing with saints His praises, To learn the angels' song. Amen. Topics: Christ Savior Used With Tune: AURELIA

In all life thou livest, the true life of all. We blossom and flourish like leaves on the tree, then wither and perish; but naught changeth thee. 4 Thou reignest in glory; thou dwellest in light.
