Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 130:5 First Line: When the heart is weary Lyrics: 1 When the heart is weary,
When its comforts die,
When its tender throbings
Meet no kind reply,—
Refrain:
One loving word from Jesus
Bids every shadow flee;
One little word from Jesus,
Lean, my child, on me.
2 When the heart is lonely,
When it longs for rest,
Go to Him who loves thee,
Lean thou on His breast. [Refrain]
3 When the heart is breaking,
Crushed with grief and pain,
How that word from Jesus
Thrills its chords again! [Refrain]
4 O that word from Jesus,
Breathed in tones so dear,
Gives us joy in sorrow,
Gives us hope in fear. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [When the heart is weary]
One Loving Word from Jesus
