A Little Talk with Jesus

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1893
Composer: Howard Doane

A little talk with Je­sus

It smoothes the rug­ged road;

It seems to help me on­ward

When faint­ing ’neath my load;

When

worn by care and sor­row

My eyes with tears are dim

There is no­thing can give me com­fort

Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

A lit­tle talk with Je­sus

A lit­tle talk with Je­sus;

There is no­thing that giv­eth me com­fort

Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

A lit­tle talk with Je­sus

Alone in sec­ret pray­er

It gives me strength and cour­age

Life’s many toils to bear;

And though I some­times fal­ter

Because the way is dim

There is no­thing can cheer me on­ward

Like a lit­tle talk with Him.

I’ll trust and wait with pa­tience

Till my ap­point­ed time

And glo­ry in the know­ledge

That such a trust is mine;

Then

where no hearts are wea­ry

No eyes with tears are dim

He will talk with me for ev­er

And I will talk with Him.
