285. Wonderful, Wonderful Jesus

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

Refrain:
Wonderful, wonderful Jesus,
In the heart He implanteth a song;
A song of deliv'rance, 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 wand'ring one,
But that God can in mercy pardon
Thro' Jesus Christ, His Son. (Refrain)
