Hymn 214
DOES JESUS CARE?
Verse 1
Does Jesus care when my heart is pained,
Too deeply for mirth or song;
As the burdens press, And the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long.
Too deeply for mirth or song;
As the burdens press, And the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long.
Chorus
O 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 (He cares)
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares (He cares)
Verse 2
Does 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?
With a nameless dread and fear?
As the daylight fades, Into deep night shades,
Does He care enough to be near?
Chorus
O 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 (He cares)
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares (He cares)
Verse 3
Does Jesus care when I’ve tried and failed,
To resist some temptation strong?
When in my deep grief I find no relief,
Tho’ my tears flow all the night long?
To resist some temptation strong?
When in my deep grief I find no relief,
Tho’ my tears flow all the night long?
Chorus
O 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 (He cares)
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares (He cares)
Verse 4
Does Jesus care when I’ve said “good-by”
To the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches, ‘Till it nearly breaks,
Is this aught to Him? Does He see?
To the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches, ‘Till it nearly breaks,
Is this aught to Him? Does He see?
Chorus
O 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 (He cares)
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares (He cares)
