Take It to Jesus in Prayer

When your skies are the dark­est

my bro­ther

And your bur­dens too hea­vy to bear;

There is One who will car­ry it for you;

Just take it to Je­sus in pray­er.

Thro’ the dark­ness He ev­er will lead you

All your bur­dens the Sav­ior will bear;

He is will­ing each mo­ment to aid you;

Just take it to Je­sus in pray­er.

When the tempt­er as­sails you

my bro­ther

At each turn of your path sets a snare;

If you ask Him

the Sav­ior will lead you;

Just take it to Je­sus in pray­er.

When your tri­als are great­est

my bro­ther

And you’re almost o’er­come with des­pair

There is One who will nev­er for­sake you;

Just take to Je­sus in pray­er.

When your bat­tles are end­ed

my bro­ther

And the heav­en­ly man­sions you share

You will find you have con­quered

my bro­ther

By go­ing to Je­sus in pray­er.
