ENGLISH LYRICS: Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?

Let not your heart be troubled. Joh.14:1

1.  Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?
    Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
    Are you grieving over joys departed?
    Tell it to Jesus alone.

    Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus,
    He is a friend that's well known;
    You have no other such a friend or brother,
    Tell it to Jesus alone.

2. Do the tears flow down your cheeks unbidden?
    Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
    Have you sins that to men's eyes are hidden?
    Tell it to Jesus alone.

3. Do you fear the gathering clouds of sorrow?
    Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
    Are you anxious what shall be tomorrow?
    Tell it to Jesus alone.

4. Are you troubled at the thought of dying?
    Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus;
    For Christ's coming kingdom are you singing?
    Tell it to Jesus alone.

Amen.
