I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say Lyrics

With Chords

«E Minor»
1. I ‹Em›heard the voice of ‹G›Jesus ‹D›say,
"Come ‹G›unto ‹Am›me and ‹D›rest;

Lay ‹C›down, O ‹Am7›weary ‹G›one, lay ‹D›down

Your ‹G›head up‹Am›on my ‹Em›breast."

I ‹Bm›came to ‹Em›Jesus ‹Am›as I ‹G›was,

Weary and worn ‹C›and ‹D›sad;

I ‹C›found in ‹Am›Him a ‹G›resting ‹D›place,

And ‹G›He has ‹Am›made me ‹Em›glad.

2. I ‹Em›heard the voice of ‹G›Jesus ‹D›say,
"Beh‹G›old, I ‹Am›freely ‹D›give

The ‹C›living ‹Am7›water; ‹G›thirsty ‹D›one,

Stoop ‹G›down and ‹Am›drink, and ‹Em›live."

I ‹Bm›came to ‹Em›Jesus, ‹Am›and I ‹G›drank

Of that life-giv‹C›ing ‹D›stream;

My ‹C›thirst was ‹Am›quenched, my ‹G›soul rev‹D›ived,

And ‹G›now I ‹Am›live in ‹Em›him.
3. I ‹Em›heard the voice of ‹G›Jesus ‹D›say,

"I ‹G›am this ‹Am›dark world's ‹D›light;

Look ‹C›unto ‹Am7›me, your ‹G›morn shall ‹D›rise,

And ‹G›all your ‹Am›day be br‹Em›ight."

I ‹Bm›looked to ‹Em›Jesus ‹Am›and I ‹G›found

In him my Star, ‹C›my ‹D›Sun;

And ‹C›in that ‹Am›light of ‹G›life I'll ‹D›walk,

Till ‹G›traveling ‹Am›days are ‹Em›done.
