I Must Tell Jesus

Details

Description

With this being the labor day weekend, I was thinking about rest and trying to find a hymn related to that; but when I found this one, it reminded me of people we've been praying about going through cancer and thinking also about hurricane Harvey, and it seemed fitting. Whatever the trials may be, the Lord is your only hope through Jesus Christ. Go to Him.

Lyrics:

I must tell Jesus all of my trials;
I cannot bear these burdens alone;
In my distress He kindly will help me;
He ever loves and cares for His own.
[Refrain]
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
I cannot bear my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all of my troubles;
He is a kind, compassionate Friend;
If I but ask Him, He will deliver,
Make of my troubles quickly an end.

Tempted and tried I need a great Savior,
One who can help my burdens to bear;
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus;
He all my cares and sorrows will share,

O how the world to evil allures me!
O how my heart is tempted to sin!
I must tell Jesus and He will help me
Over the world the vic’try to win.
