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 my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone.
He is a kind, compassionate Friend;
If I but ask Him, He will deliver,
And in my griefs with me He will blend.
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 my heart is tempted to sin!
I must tell Jesus; He will enable
Over the world the vic’try to win.
