I???ve tried in vain a thousand ways My fears to quell, my hopes to raise; But what I need, the Bible says, Is ever, only Jesus. My soul is night, my heart is steel??? I cannot see, I cannot feel; For light, for life, I must appeal In simple faith to Jesus. He died, He lives, He reigns, He pleads; There???s love in all His words and deeds; There???s all a guilty sinner needs Forevermore in Jesus. Tho??? some should sneer, and some should blame, I???ll go with all my guilt and shame; I???ll go to Him because His Name, Above all names, is Jesus.
