TO JESUS ALWAYS

I ALWAYS go to Jesus,

When troubled or distressed;

I always find a refuge

When I with Him can rest.

I tell Him all my trials,

I tell Him all my grief;

And while my lips are speaking

He gives my heart relief.

When full of dread forebodings,

And flowing o’er with tears,

     He calms away my sorrows,

And hushes all my fears.

He comprehends my weakness,

The peril I am in,

And He supplies the armor

I need to vanquish sin.

When those are cold and faithless,

Who once were fond and true,

With careless hearts forsaking

The old friends for the new,

I turn to Him whose friendship

Knows neither change nor end:

I always find in Jesus

An ever faithful Friend.

I always go to Jesus;

No matter when or where

I seek His gracious presence,

I’m sure to find Him there.

In times of joy or sorrow,

Whate’er my need may be,

I always go to Jesus,

And Jesus comforts me.
