So heavy laden and burdened down, I did not know just what to do
So I went and I prayed for strength to endure. Jesus said, "Be still I-I will see you through."
(choir sing oooh)
So I tried Him and I know Him, He'll stick closer than any brother
So I tried Him and I know Him, He's been better to me than I've been to myself
There could never be a friend as dear to me as Jesus
So now when you go through, through your trials and your tests,
Please don't look, down to men for they'll let you down
Just remember there is just one, one, one, one friend who will go with you till the end.
His name is Jesus, Jesus, my Jesus, He'll tell you what, why and when ooh ohh
So I tried Him and I know Him, He has never failed me yet. Ohh, ohh
I tried Him and I know Him, He will be your constant friend.
There could never be a friend as dear to me as Jesus
