My home recording skills are far from perfect, but it was still fun to record this folk hymn. Lyrics by Horatius Bonar, one of my favorite authors. (Free to download.)

lyrics

I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
Your 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--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 trav'ling days are done.
