DOES JESUS CARE
Author(s): Peter D.
Songbook: When You Need Him Most
KeyWords: Comfort,

Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
Too deeply for mirth and song;
As the burdens press, and the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long?

Chorus
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?

[Repeat Chorus]

Does Jesus care when I've tried and failed
To resist some temptation strong;
When for my deep grief I find no relief,
Though my tears flow all the night long?

[Repeat Chorus]

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?

[Repeat Chorus two times]

When the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
I know my Savior cares.
