1 Is there heavy weight of care,
In thy bosom anywhere,
And you need a friend to sympathize with you?
Go to Jesus with it all,
And for comfort on Him call,
He will give you such, as others cannot do!

Chorus:
Go to Jesus with it all,
Go to Jesus with it all,
He's the helper that you need,
He's a comforter indeed,
Go to Jesus with it all, with it all!

2 In thy trouble He is near,
Oh, my brother, do not fear,
Ask of Him the burden there to roll away,
That His spirit enter in,
And His mighty work begin,
And thy soul will have a happy, happy day! [Chorus]

3 You can touch Him with your cry,
And He'll never pass you by,
For He feels the depths of all thy spirit's woe,
He had traveled sorrow's road
And has carried of its load,
And He'll carry thine, my brother, to Him go! [Chorus]

4 When, Him trusting, you have tried,
You'll be fully satisfied,
That there is no other friend like this dear one,
He such blessing will impart,
As will glad den all thy heart,
Go to Him if you would have it surely done! [Chorus]
