This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  Does Jesus care when my heart is pained

    Too deeply for mirth or song,

       As the burdens press,

       And the cares distress,

    And the way grows weary and long?

 

O yes, He cares, I know He cares,

His heart is touched with my grief;

   When the days are weary,

   The long night dreary,

I know my Savior cares.

 

 2  Does Jesus care when my way is dark

    With a nameless dread and fear?

       As the daylight fades

       Into deep night shades,

    Does He care enough to be near?

 

O yes, He cares, I know He cares,

His heart is touched with my grief;

   When the days are weary,

   The long night dreary,

I know my Savior cares.

 

 3  Does Jesus care when I've tried and failed

    To resist some temptation strong;

       When for my deep grief

       There is no relief,

    Though my tear flow all the night long?

 

O yes, He cares, I know He cares,

His heart is touched with my grief;

   When the days are weary,

   The long night dreary,

I know my Savior cares.

 

 4  Does Jesus care when I've said "goodbye"

    To the dearest on earth to me,

       And my sad heart aches

       Till it nearly breaks,

    Is it aught to Him? Does He see?

 

O yes, He cares, I know He cares,

His heart is touched with my grief;

   When the days are weary,

   The long night dreary,

I know my Savior cares.
