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,
Weary and 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.

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 travelling days are done.
       Horatius Bonar.

IT IS A THING MOST WONDERFUL,
Almost too wonderful to be,
That God’s own Son should come from heaven
And die to save a child like me.

And yet I know that it is true.
He came to this poor world below,
And wept, and toiled, and mourned, and died,
Only because He loved us so.

I cannot tell how He could love
A child so weak and full of sin.
His love must be most wonderful,
If He could die my love to win.

It is most wonderful to know
His love for me so free and sure.
But ’tis more wonderful to see
My love for Him so faint and poor.

And yet I want to love Thee, Lord.
O light the flame within my heart,
And I will love Thee more and more,
Until I see Thee as Thou art.

THE GOD OF ABRAHAM PRAISE,
Who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting days, and God of love.
Jehovah! Great I AM!
By earth and heaven confessed.
I bow and bless the sacred name forever blessed.

The God of Abraham praise,
At whose supreme command
From earth I rise and seek the joys at His right hand.
I all on earth forsake—
Its wisdom, fame, and power—
And Him my only portion make, my shield and tower.

The God of Abraham praise,
Whose all-sufficient grace
Shall guide me all my happy days in all my ways.
He calls a worm His friend,
He calls Himself my God.
And He shall save me to the end through Jesu’s blood.

He by Himself hath sworn,
I on His oath depend:
I shall, on eagles’ wings upborne, to heaven ascend.
I shall behold His face,
I shall His power adore,
And sing the wonders of His grace forever more.

The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high.
Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! They ever cry.
Hail, Abraham’s God, and mine!
I join the heavenly lays.
All might, and majesty are Thine, and endless praise.
