Lyrics

Bring your eve­ry care to Je­sus,
Jesus, your al­migh­ty friend;
He will car­ry all your bur­den,
Love and keep you to the end.

Refrain

Jesus loves you, Je­sus loves you,
Jesus, your al­migh­ty friend;
He will car­ry all your bur­den,
Love and keep you to the end.

Jesus calls you, kind­ly calls you;
Trust His ne­ver-fail­ing love;
He who died on Cal­va­ry’s mount­ain,
Calls you from His home above.

Refrain

Bring your ev­ery grief to Je­sus,
Who has suf­fered so for you;
Think you He will slight your sor­row?
He, the faith­ful and the true?

Refrain

Bring your ev­ery joy to Je­sus;
For He smiles to see you glad;
He would have His child­ren hap­py;
Never gloomy, ne­ver sad.

Refrain

Give your­self away to Je­sus;
Oh, He longs to make you blest:
He will bring you safe to glo­ry,
Where the ran­somed are at rest.
