Heard the Voice

I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto me and rest;
lay down, oh weary one, lay down your head upon my breast."
I came to Jesus as I was, weary, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place, and he has made me glad.

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.

Oh amazing grace how sweet the sound
From heaven raining down I

heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world's light;
look unto me, your morn shall rise, and all your days 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 my traveling days are done.

Oh amazing grace how sweet the sound
From heaven raining down

LINER NOTES

“This song is a great reminder of Jesus calling us into relationship with Himself. Heard the Voice really captures His love for us and the way we are welcomed wherever we are in life. The new foot tapping tune to this old hymn gets me excited about what to expect when going to the comforting arms of Christ.” - Rachel
