7610. Wonderful, Wonderful Jesus

1. There is never a day so dreary,
There is never a night so long,
But the soul that is trusting in Jesus
Will somewhere find a song.

Refrain
Wonderful, wonderful Jesus,
In the heart He implanteth a song:
A song of deliverance, of courage, of strength,
In the heart He implanteth a song.

2. There is never a cross so heavy,
There is never a weight of woe,
But that Jesus will help to carry
Because He loveth so. [Refrain]

3. There is never a care or burden,
There is never a grief or loss,
But that Jesus in love will lighten
When carried to the cross. [Refrain]

4. There is never a guilty sinner,
There is never a wandering one,
But that God can in mercy pardon
Through Jesus Christ, His Son. [Refrain]
