Honey Out of the Rock ‎#94

94. Nobody Knows But Jesus

1 Nobody knows the burdens I bear,
Nobody knows but Jesus,
Nobody helps me to carry my cares,
Nobody helps like Jesus.

Refrain:
Oh! I tell Him all my grief,
Tell it all to Jesus,
He doth give me sweet relief,
Jesus, blessed Jesus.

2 Nobody knows the trouble I see,
Nobody knows but Jesus,
Wonderful comfort is Christ to me,
Nobody helps like Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Nobody knows how tempted I am,
Nobody knows but Jesus,
He can deliver, blest be His name,
Mighty to save is Jesus, [Refrain]

4 Nobody knows the sorrow I feel,
Nobody knows but Jesus,
Grief cannot be that He cannot heal,
Nobody soothes like Jesus. [Refrain]

5 Help me to sing His mercy and grace,
Help me to sing of Jesus,
Soon shall we meet before His dear face,
Soon shall we meet with Jesus. [Refrain]
