Tell It to Jesus

 
1 

Are you weary, are you heavyhearted?

Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;

Are you grieving over joys departed?

Tell it to Jesus alone.

Chorus:

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.

2 

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.

[Chorus]

3 

Do you fear the gath'ring clouds of sorrow?

Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;

Are you anxious what shall be tomorrow?

Tell it to Jesus alone.

[Chorus]

4 

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.
