Author: Robert Fleming Sample, 1829-1905 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9964 First Line: I hear a voice, ’tis soft and sweet Refrain First Line: Sweeter than chiming bells Lyrics: 1 I hear a voice, ’tis soft and sweet,
It bids my sin-sick soul rejoice;
The same was heard in Salem’s street,
And in the mountain’s cool retreat,
My Savior’s voice.
Refrain:
Sweeter than chiming bells,
Softer than evening rills,
The voice that tells of pardon—
Pardon, peace, and Heav’n.
2 When weary with my load of guilt,
I’ll not forget that Christ is all;
For me His precious blood was spilt;
He sweetly says, Come, if thou wilt;
How glad the call! [Refrain]
3 My soul is troubled like the sea,
The surging billows roll around;
But He who calmed far Galilee
Doth kindly say, Peace be to thee;
How blest the sound! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I hear a voice, 'tis soft and sweet]
I Hear A Voice,'Tis Soft And Sweet
