From The Hymnal ~ I Must Tell Jesus



Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7

I had another post prepared for this segment this morning but I woke up with this hymn roll thru my head. I encountered so many dear folks this week who were bearing burdens that were beyond their abilities to bear. I love both this verse and this hymn....GREAT reminders that we are not alone in our cares.

I Must Tell Jesus

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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 victory to win.

Refrain
