Representative Text

1 When our hearts are weary,
When our faith is small,
Go to Him who loves us,
He will hear our call.

Refrain:
Go to Him in secret,
When no eye can see;
Kneeling there before Him,
Sweet our rest will be.

2 When our hearts are lonely,
When no friend is near,
Tell Him all our sorrow,
Whisper every fear. [Refrain]

3 When our path is dreary,
When the days are long,
He will give us courage,
Vigor, strength and song. [Refrain]
