WHEN sorrows surround you,
When dangers are near,
When hardships confront you,
Your heart full of fear—
Tell Jesus.
You think that the burden's
Too heavy to bear,
That oft you are having
Much more than your share—
Tell Jesus.
And if you are tempted
To fret and complain,
Remember He's working
Your blessing and gain—
Tell Jesus.
Do friends prove unfaithful?
Do loved ones forsake?
Does sorrow on sorrow
Your heart fairly break?
Tell Jesus.
No matter what trial
May fall to your lot,
Don't fail to remember
His love faileth not—
Tell Jesus.
