1. Ouvi o Salvador dizer:
“Vem descansar em Mim,
E nos Meus braços podes ter
Consolação sem fim.”
Então eu vim e Lhe entreguei
Meu triste coração.
Abrigo e paz eu encontrei,
Achei consolação.

2. Ouvi o Salvador dizer:
“De graça Eu sempre dou
As águas vivas – vem beber;
Da vida, a Fonte sou.”
Vim a Jesus e me prostrei
Às águas, e bebi;
Jamais a sede sentirei,
Estando sempre aqui.

3. Ouvi o Salvador dizer:
“A Luz do mundo sou;
Ó, vinde a Mim! A quem vier,
A luz da vida dou.”
Vim a Jesus, e nEle achei
O Sol que brilha em mim;
E nessa luz eu andarei
Até da vida, o fim.

Author: Horatius Bonar

Horatius Bonar was born at Edinburgh, in 1808. His education was obtained at the High School, and the University of his native city. He was ordained to the ministry, in 1837, and since then has been pastor at Kelso. In 1843, he joined the Free Church of Scotland. His reputation as a religious writer was first gained on the publication of the "Kelso Tracts," of which he was the author. He has also written many other prose works, some of which have had a very large circulation. Nor is he less favorably known as a religious poet and hymn-writer. The three series of "Hymns of Faith and Hope," have passed through several editions. --Annotations of the Hymnal, Charles Hutchins, M.A. 1872… Go to person page >
