I tell Him all; it is so sweet
To lay my bur­den at His feet,
My trust He’ll not be­tray;
I know He hears my pray­er in song,
My whis­per ’mid the busy throng,
A Beth­el ’long the way.

Refrain

I tell him all—sin, grief, desire,
He’ll not my trust be­tray;
He’ll stay by me thro’ tri­al’s fire,
And keep me all the way.

Amid earth’s storms and gloom and strife,
When sec­ret tri­als pierce the life
Like thorns with­in the soul,
Jesus then sees my ev­ery loss—
He knows He faint­ed ’neath the cross,
And cheers tho’ tem­pests roll.

Refrain

How blest to know He’ll guide and keep,
As shep­herds guard the help­less sheep,
In tones both soft and loud;
And tho’ Christ some­times seems to wait,
He ne­ver yet gave help too late
To gold­en line each cloud.

Refrain
