Christ in Song 492

Does Jesus Care?

Studio

1Does Jesus care when my heart is pain'd Too deeply for mirth or song;
As the burdens press,
And the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long?

RefrainO yes,
He cares,
I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares.

2Does Jesus care when my way is dark With a nameless dread and fear?
As the daylight fades Into deep night shades,
Does He care enough to be near?

3Does Jesus care when I've tried and fail'd To resist some temptation strong?
When in my deep grief I find no relief,
Tho' my tears flow all the night long?

4Does Jesus care when I've said “goodby” To the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches 'Till it nearly breaks— Is this aught to Him? does He see?
