Bury Thy Sorrow

lyricist: Mary Bachelor, 1868
Composer: Philip Bliss

Go bu­ry thy sor­row

the world hath its share;

Go bu­ry it deep­ly

go hide it with care.

Go think of it calm­ly

when cur­tained by night;

Go tell it to Je­sus

and all will be right.

Go tell it to Je­sus

He know­eth thy grief;

Go tell it to Je­sus

He’ll send thee re­lief;

Go gather the sun­shine He sheds on the way:

He’ll light­en thy bur­den—Go

wea­ry one

pray.

Hearts grow­ing awea­ry with hea­vi­er woe

Now droop ’mid the dark­ness—Go

com­fort them

go!

Go bu­ry thy sor­row

let oth­ers be blessed;

Go give them the sun­shine

tell Je­sus the rest.
