I must tell Jesus all of my trials (revised)

lyricist: Elisha Albright Hoffman
Composer: Elisha Albright Hoffman

I must tell Jesus all of my trials;

I cannot bear these burdens alone;

In distress

He alone can assist me;

Wipe my tears

sympathize with His own.

I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!

Pour out my heart to Jesus alone;

I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!

He knows

He comforts—Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all of my troubles;

I cannot bear my burdens alone;

My affairs

only Jesus can shoulder;

Comfort and soothe me—Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all my shortcomings;

I cannot face my worries alone;

I taste His riches

my need supplying

More than sufficient—Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all of my weakness;

I can’t o’ercome flesh

lust

on my own;

From law of sin

from all of my bondage

He can release me—Jesus alone.

I must tell Jesus all my temptations;

I can’t withstand the tempter alone.

In a like manner Jesus was tempted;

Jesus can rescue—Jesus alone.
