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.
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.
Hearts growing aweary
with heavier woe
Now droop ’mid the darkness—
Go, comfort them, go!
Go bury thy sorrow,
let others be blessed;
Go give them the sunshine,
tell Jesus the rest.
