Have you pain, or care, or sorrow?
Go to Jesus;
Are you doubtful of the morrow?
Go to Jesus;
While before His face you bend,
Tell Him as you would a friend,
All your trials to the end,
Blessèd Jesus.
Are you tired of earthly pleasures?
Go to Jesus;
Do you long for heav’nly treasures?
Go to Jesus;
He will cleanse your heart of sin,
He will make you pure within,
Helping you the crown to win,
Blessèd Jesus.
Have you lost a loving mother?
Go to Jesus;
Have you neither friend or brother?
Go to Jesus;
He will sweetly bid you rest,
On His kind and gentle breast,
He who doeth all things best;
Blessèd Jesus.
