When thou art for sin distreas’d,
And thou think’st thyself unbless’d,

And thy faith has almost fail’d,
Flee to Him whose prayer prevailed,
And tell Jesus all. Luke 22:32.

Hidden be His smile of love,
He can all those clouds remove:

From the strait and narrow way,
Do not thou his faults display,
But tell Jesus all. Gal. 6:1; Jam. 5:16.

Sorrow far from thee be found,
Gladness all thy steps surround,
Then tell Jesus all. 1 Thess. 5:18

Happiness, unless they spring
From thy Lord, thy Life, the King;
So, tell Jesus all. Col. 2:2

When we rest in heaven at last
All our sins and trials past,
And our crowns before Him cast,
Well tell Jesus all. Rev. 4:10; 5:9, 10.
