A little talk with Je­sus,
It smoothes the rug­ged road;
It seems to help me on­ward
When faint­ing ’neath my load;
When, worn by care and sor­row,
My eyes with tears are dim,
There is no­thing can give me com­fort
Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

Refrain

A lit­tle talk with Je­sus,
A lit­tle talk with Je­sus;
There is no­thing that giv­eth me com­fort
Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

A lit­tle talk with Je­sus,
Alone in sec­ret pray­er,
It gives me strength and cour­age,
Life’s many toils to bear;
And though I some­times fal­ter,
Because the way is dim,
There is no­thing can cheer me on­ward
Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

Refrain

I’ll trust and wait with pa­tience
Till my ap­point­ed time,
And glo­ry in the know­ledge
That such a trust is mine;
Then, where no hearts are wea­ry,
No eyes with tears are dim,
He will talk with me for ev­er,
And I will talk with Him.

Refrain
