A Song dedication to a friend and others who need it as well

Hymns were all written by people who understood, felt and suffered the toils of life. When we were children, troubles didn't feel all that heavy. But as we continue to grow, our burdens of life inevitably grow too. We realize we need to be equipped with great mental and physical strength so that we can shoulder the responsibility well and efficiently. When we are adults ("a man"), we put away childish things. That is supposed to be only natural, isn't it? Well, it's always easier said than done. Despite having many adults amidst us, they do many childish things as well. ):

Without further ado, here they go!

Tell It To Jesus Alone

i.
Are you weary, are you heavy-hearted?
Tell it to Jesus,
Tell it to Jesus,
Are you grieving over joy departed,
Tell it to Jesus alone.

Refrain:
Tell it to Jesus
Tell it to Jesus
He is a friend that's well known
You have no other such a friend or brother,
Tell it to Jesus alone.

ii.
Do your tears flow down your cheeks unbidden?
Tell it to Jesus,
Tell it to Jesus,
Have you sins that to man's eye are hidden?
Tell it to Jesus alone.

Refrain:
Tell it to Jesus
Tell it to Jesus
He is a friend that's well known
You have no other such a friend or brother,
Tell it to Jesus alone.

iii.
Do you fear the gath'ring clouds of sorrow?
Tell it to Jesus
Tell it to Jesus
Are you anxious what will be tomorrow?
Tell it to Jesus alone.

Refrain:
Tell it to Jesus
Tell it to Jesus
He is a friend that's well known
You have no other such a friend or brother,
Tell it to Jesus alone.

[I checked a few sites but failed to find the mp3 or anything media.]

A Common Love

A common love for each other,
A common gift to the Savior
A common bond holding us to the Lord
A common strength when we're weary
A common hope for tomorrow
A common joy in the truth of God's word

They are no-copy-and-paste work! I typed every word up there and I am doing this with only one intention: sincerity.

Hope they make you feel better and smile :)
