Hymn 336 - Does Jesus Care?

Does Jesus care when my heart is pained

Too deeply for mirth or song,

As the burdens press,

and the cares distress

And the way grows weary and long?

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?

Does Jesus care when I’ve tried and failed

To resist some temptation strong;

When for my deep grief

there is no relief,

Though my tears flow all the night long?

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?

REFRAIN

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 Saviour cares.
