Album: WHEN YOU NEED HIM MOST | Song lyrics to: DOES JESUS CARE
"DOES JESUS CARE"
Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
Too deeply for mirth and song;
As the burdens press, and the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long?
Chorus
Oh yes, He cares; I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief.
When the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
Does Jesus care when my way is dark
With a nameless dread and fear?
As the daylight fades into deep night shades,
Does He care enough to be near?
[Repeat Chorus]
Does Jesus care when I've tried and failed
To resist some temptation strong;
When for my deep grief I find no relief,
Though my tears flow all the night long?
[Repeat Chorus]
Does Jesus care when I've said "goodbye"
To the dearest on Earth to me,
And my sad heart aches till it nearly breaks-
Is it aught to Him? Does He see?
[Repeat Chorus two times]
When the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
