HE IS ABLE

Do you know the love of Jesus
And the comfort of his care?
Do you know how sweet his presence?
Do you know that he is there?

Troubles try and sadness sickens,
Worries multiply and vex,
But remember Jesus promised
He will never you forsake.

Mountains great may be still greater,
Problems ever complicate,
But be sure if you love Jesus,
You are never left to fate.

When he died for helpless sinners
All sin’s consequences bore,
He became our perfect refuge,
Peace and rest for evermore.

Pain-free life he never promised,
Never said you’d live at ease,
But his love and care make troubles
Stepping-stones to find his peace.

Why not trust this loving Jesus,
Give yourself to his true care?
All your worries give him fully
All your troubles let him bear?

He is able, he is able,
He is mighty, he is true,
He is loving, kind and gentle.
He has given himself for you!
