Does Jesus care
when my heart is pained
Too deeply for mirth or song,
As the burdens press,
and the cares distress
And the way grows weary and long?
Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
Does Jesus care
when my way is dark
With a nameless dread and fear?
As the daylight fades
into deep night shades,
Does He care enough to be near?
Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
Does Jesus care
when I’ve tried and failed
To resist some temptation strong;
When for my deep grief
there is no relief,
Though my tears flow
all the night long?
Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
Does Jesus care
when I’ve said “goodbye”
To the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches
till it nearly breaks,
Is it aught to Him? Does He see?
Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
