Author: C. H. M. Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat No. 3 #56 (1904) Refrain First Line: Talk to Jesus often Lyrics: 1 Just a word with Jesus Before the day begins, Just a plea for guidance A day of blessing wins; Just a moment’s waiting In silence at his feet, Just to hear him whisper His words of counsel sweet. Refrain: Talk to Jesus often, Heart to heart and face to face, Talk to Jesus often, And trust his sov’reign grace; Don’t forget to praise him For what he’s done for you, Talk to Jesus often, This Friend so true. 2 Just a tho’t in secret, A little whispered pray’r Makes the heart courageous, And lifts a load of care; Just a glimpse of Jesus, To faith’s unwav’ring sight, Turns the clouds to sunshine, And makes the whole day bright. [Refrain] 3 Just a word with Jesus— But how much it means When with trust unbroken A soul upon him leans; Grant, O precious Savior, Tho’ much denied may be, We, thro’ life’s short journey, May walk and talk with thee. [Refrain] Topics: Communion-Fellowship Tune Title: [Just a word with Jesus]
