5219. Only Jesus Feels and Knows

1. Only Jesus feels and knows
All the weight of human woes;
Full and free His mercy flows,
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus!

Refrain
Oh, that name we love to hear,
Name above all others dear!
How it calms our every fear!
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus!

2. Only Jesus looks within,
Sees our hearts and all our sin;
Only He can make us clean;
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus! [Refrain]

3. Only Jesus answers prayer,
Lighter makes the cross we bear,
Bids us cast on Him our care;
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus! [Refrain]

4. Safe in Him our souls abide,
Safe His hand our steps will guide,
Till we sing beyond the tide,
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus! [Refrain]
