Are you wea­ry, are you hea­vy heart­ed?
Tell it to Je­sus, tell it to Je­sus.
Are you griev­ing over joys de­part­ed?
Tell it to Je­sus alone.

Refrain

Tell it to Je­sus, tell it to Je­sus,
He is a friend that’s well known.
You’ve no oth­er such a friend or bro­ther,
Tell it to Je­sus alone.

Do the tears flow down your cheeks un­bid­den?
Tell it to Je­sus, tell it to Je­sus.
Have you sins that to men’s eyes are hid­den?
Tell it to Je­sus alone.

Refrain

Do you fear the ga­ther­ing clouds of sor­row?
Tell it to Je­sus, tell it to Je­sus.
Are you an­xious what shall be to­mor­row?
Tell it to Je­sus alone.

Refrain

Are you trou­bled at the thought of dy­ing?
Tell it to Je­sus, tell it to Je­sus.
For Christ’s com­ing king­dom are you sigh­ing?
Tell it to Je­sus alone.
