I Must Tell Jesus

D                           A7  D
I must tell Jesus all of my trials
                             A7
I cannot bear these burdens alone
D                             A7   Bm
In my distress He kindly will help me
D                             A7  D
He always loves and cares for His own


Chorus:
D                              G
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus
                         A7
I cannot bear my burdens alone
D                              A7 Bm
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus
D                   A7   D
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone


I must tell Jesus all of my troubles
He is a kind, compassionate friend
If I but ask Him, He will deliver
Make of my troubles quickly an end


Tempted and tried, I need a great Saviour
One who can help my burden to bear
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus
He all my cares and sorrows will share


O how the world of evil allures me
O how my heart is tempted to sin
I must tell Jesus and He will help me
Over the world the victory to win
