Nobody Knows but Jesus

Nobody knows but Je­sus:

’Tis but an old re­frain;

But it is new to my heart

Now as it comes again.

Nobody knows but Je­sus:

Is it not bet­ter so

That no one else but Je­sus

My own dear Lord

shall know?

Nobody knows but Je­sus:

’Tis mu­sic for to­day

And thro’ the hard­est tri­als

Helps me along the way.

Burdens might be so he­avy

That dear ones could not bear

To know the bit­ter heart­aches

They could not come and share.

Nobody knows but Je­sus:

My Lord

I bless Thee now

For the great gift of sor­row

That no one knows but Thou.
