REACH OUT TO JESUS

Is your burden heavy, as you bear it all alone?
Does the road you travel harbor dangers yet unknown?
Are you growing weary in the struggle of it all?
Jesus will help you -- When on His name you call.

He is always there -- Hearing every prayer -- Faithful and true -- Walking by our side -- In his loves we'll hide -- All the day through.

When you get discouraged, just remember what to do --
Reach out to Jesus -- He's reaching out to you.

Is the life you're living, filled with sorrow and despair?
Does the future press you with its weight and its care?
Are you tired and famished? Have you almost lost your way?
Jesus will help you -- just call on him today!

He is always there -- Hearing every prayer -- Faithful and true 
Walking by our side -- in His love we'll hide -- All the day through.

When you get discouraged, just remember what to do --
Reach out to Jesus -- Come on and reach out to Jesus --
I said to reach out to Jesus -- He's reaching out to you!
