16401. Tell The Master All

1 Make a full, complete confession
When on the Lord you call;
Do not carry half the burden,
But tell the Master all.

Refrain:
All, all, whatever your burdens may be,
Whether great or small;
Make to Him a full confession,
Just tell the Master all.

2 Not alone the great temptations
That may your heart appall,
But the little cares and troubles,
Just tell the Master all. [Refrain]

3 For the One who guards creation
And notes the sparrow’s fall,
Will give heed to your petition,
Just tell the Master all. [Refrain]

4 Tell to God your cares and sorrows,
And nothing count too small,
For His ear is ever open,
Just tell the Master all. [Refrain]

5 Till at last you reach that city,
Where teardrops never fall,
When you pray to Him in secret,
Just tell the Master all. [Refrain]
