Text: | He Cares for Me |
Author: | Ella E. Miles |
Tune: | [He cares for me, he knows my heart's distress] |
Composer: | F. S. Stanton |
1 He cares for me, he knows my heart's distress,
Its weight of care, its pain and loneliness;
Sweet solace this--whate'er my lot my be,
The blessed Lord, he sees and cares for me, he cares for me.
Chorus:
He cares for me,
He cares for me,
He sees and cares for me, for me.
2 Within each breast are hidden griefs to bear,
No earthly friend with us these griefs can share;
In such dark hours my Comforter is he,
He understands--he loves and cares for me, he cares for me. [Chorus]
3 What tho' I am his smallest, weakest child,
When others frown'd I know that he has smiled;
The inner conflicts fierce they could not see,
He knows it all--and still he cares for me, he cares for me. [Chorus]
4 He cares for me, thro' life, thro' death, I know
Beyond his sheltering love I cannot go;
While him I trust, while unto him I flee,
He will protect because he cares for me, he cares for me. [Chorus]
