Verse 1A

I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon my breast."

Verse 2A

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.

Verse 3A
