A child hangs on by a thread
A mother's heart is put to test
And pain divides the soul and mind,
She prays a sunny day to find
Tell Jesus, He's always there,
Tell Jesus
And even though you don't see it
A place in the sun waits for you
Just lean in closer to Him,
And tell him all about your troubles
Ooh tell Him, tell Jesus
And sometimes it's hard to believe,
That Jesus even sees me
But deep inside I know the truth
He's just a prayer away from this silly fool
Tell Jesus, He's always there
And even though you don't know it
Jesus heard your cry and wrote it down
And though you're crying now
He'll bring songs of joy, believe it.
So won't you tell Jesus
