30. Bury Thy Sorrow

1 Go bury thy sorrow,
The world hath its share;
Go bury it deeply,
Go hide it with care;
Go think of it calmly,
When curtained by night,
Go tell it to Jesus,
And all will be right.

2 Go tell it to Jesus,
He knoweth thy grief:
Go tell it to Jesus,
He'll send thee relief:
Go gather the sunshine
He sheds on the way;
He'll lighten thy burden,
Go, weary one, pray.

3 Hearts growing a weary
With heavier woe,
Now droop 'mid the darkness--
Go comfort them, go!
Go bury thy sorrow,
Let others be blest;
Go give them the sunshine,
Tell Jesus the rest.
