I Will Tell It To Jesus My Lord

When times of temptation bring sadness and gloom,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord;
The last of earth�s treasures borne out to the tomb,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.
This earth hath no sorrow
For today or tomorrow,
But Jesus hath known it and felt long ago,
And when it comes o�er me,
And I�m tempted so sorely,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.

Refrain

I will tell it to Jesus, to Jesus my Lord;
I will tell it to Jesus,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.

When out on the hilltops, away from all sin,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord;
When joyous and happy the sunshine within,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.
To know I�m forgiven
Is a foretaste of Heaven,
And Jesus is dearer to me than before,
Such peacefulness fills me,
Such an ecstasy fills me,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.

Refrain

When weary with toiling and ready to faint,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord;
He never refuses to hear my complaint,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.
I�ll cheerfully bear it,
When I�ve Jesus to share it,
His yoke it is easy, His burden is light,
When life becomes dreary,
And I�m footsore and weary,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.

Refrain

When darkness is dimming my path to the sky,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord;
When helpers shall fail me and comforts shall fly,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.
Though blurred my life�s pages
By my sin and its wages,
He�s yesterday, now, and forever the same,
I�ll not be forsaken,
Tho� my life should be taken,
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord.
