I must tell Jesus all of my trials;
I cannot bear these burdens alone;
In my distress He kindly will help me;
He ever loves and cares for His own.
I cannot bear these burdens alone;
In my distress He kindly will help me;
He ever loves and cares for His own.
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
I cannot bear my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone.
I cannot bear my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all of my troubles;
He is a kind, compassionate Friend;
If I but ask Him, He will deliver,
And in my griefs with me He will blend.
He is a kind, compassionate Friend;
If I but ask Him, He will deliver,
And in my griefs with me He will blend.

Tempted and tried I need a great Savior,
One who can help my burdens to bear;
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus;
He all my cares and sorrows will share,
One who can help my burdens to bear;
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus;
He all my cares and sorrows will share,

O how the world to evil allures me!
O how my heart is tempted to sin!
I must tell Jesus; He will enable
Over the world the vic’try to win.
O how my heart is tempted to sin!
I must tell Jesus; He will enable
Over the world the vic’try to win.

May 24, 2026, 5:52 am, I woke up humming this beautiful hymn, but couldn't remember the lyrics. Thank God I found them. The Holy Spirit prompted me, and my soul cried out, "I must tell Jesus!" I cannot carry these burdens alone. In my distress, HE WILL hear me.
"I must tell Jesus all of my troubles;
He is a kind, compassionate Friend.
If I ask Him, He will deliver,
And in my griefs, He will blend with me. I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
I cannot bear my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus, alone." Thank you, Jesus, ❤️ 😭🙌🛐🙏🤲

I frequent my 'war room' nowadays and I sing this song as I enter. I know that God knows it all but I find peace in telling it all to him. I know that Jesus can help me, and Jesus alone. No one understands like Jesus.

Jesus alone can help us because He cares for us. I can tell Him all my problems. He bore them all on the cross, so why should I bare the trouble again?

Few minutes ago I was in severe Asthma disorder and the chorus of this song came in and I started singing I must tell Jesus, and right now I'm relieved.

I was going to church this morning, the chorus of this some just came to me from no where, and I knew I needed to sing this song, came home after service and sang it. It has always been an inspiring song since I was a child. Especially when low at heart. It encourages me. Thank you Jesus🙏
