Jesus knows thy sor­row,
Knows thine ev­ery care;
Knows thy deep con­tri­tion,
Hears thy feeb­lest pray­er;
Do not fear to trust Him—
Tell Him all thy grief;
Cast on Him thy bur­den,
He will bring relief.

Trust the heart of Je­sus,
Thou art pre­cious there;
Surely He would shield thee
From the tempt­er’s snare;
Safely He would lead thee
By His own sweet way,
Out into the glo­ry
Of a bright­er day.

Jesus knows thy con­flict,
Hears thy bur­dened sigh;
When thy heart is wound­ed,
Hears thy plaint­ive cry;
He thy soul will strength­en,
Overcome thy fears;
He will send thee com­fort,
Wipe away thy tears.
