Text: | Tell it to Jesus |
1 Are you weary, are you heavy-hearted?
Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus:
Are you grieving over joys departed?
Tell it to Jesus alone.
Chorus:
Tell it to Jesus, tell it Jesus,
He is a friend that's well known;
You have no other such a friend or brother,
Tell it to Jesus alone.
2 Do the tears flow down your cheeks unbidden?
Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
Have you sins that to man's eye are hidden?
Tell it to Jesus alone. [Chorus]
3 Do you fear the gathering clouds of sorrow?
Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
Are you anxious what shall be to-morrow?
Tell it to Jesus alone. [Chorus]
4 Are you troubled at the thought of dying?
Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
For Christ's coming kingdom are you sighing?
Tell it to Jesus alone. [Chorus]
