Go to Jesus

1. Go to Jesus with thy sor­rows,
He thy bur­dened soul will ease;
He will give thy trou­bled con­sci­ence
A sweet sense of par­don­ing peace.

Refrain:
Go to Je­sus, go to Je­sus,
Lean up­on His lov­ing breast;
Go to Je­sus, go to Je­sus,
He will give thy spir­it rest.

2. Go to Je­sus with thy tri­als,
Tell Him all thy cares and woes;
He has pro­mised, if we ask Him,
He will give us sweet re­pose. [Refrain]

3. Go to Je­sus when the tempt­er
Seeks to lure thee from the right;
When the wick­ed one as­sails thee,
Ever keep the cross in sight. [Refrain]

4. Go to Je­sus when thy bur­dens
Are too hard for thee to bear;
Tell Him all thy cares and sor­rows,
He will lend a list­en­ing ear. [Refrain]

5. Go to Jesus when death’s sha­dows
Quickly ga­ther round thy way;
Ask of Him to guide thy foot­steps
To the realms of end­less day. [Refrain]

6. Then, in that ce­les­ti­al ci­ty,
Thou shalt find a last­ing rest
From earth’s tur­moil, cares and sor­rows,
With the saints for­ev­er blest. [Refrain]
