Jesus Can

If I could

I would take away the trouble

Weighing heavy on your mind

And in your life

And if I could

I would wipe away the sorrow

That you feel deep down inside

And make them mine

But there’s only just so much

A friend, indeed, can help you through along the way

Oh, but I’m glad to say I know the One

Who will be there to help you when you pray

If I could

I would take you by the hand

And lead you through this valley wide

And stand upon a mountain high

If I could

I would walk across the burning, desert sand

Restore your soul with sweeter water

From a better land

But I’m sure that in my strongest hour

I still could not possess the power

To bring you through the raging fire

You must withstand

But remember that Jesus can

If I could

I would wipe away the tears

That stain your pillow in the night

And make it right

And if I could

I would lift you up

Above the clouds of doubt and fearful fright

With all my might

But the truth remains the same

Though I try my best

I’m still someone like you

Oh, but I’m glad to say I know the One

Who will be there to help you make it through

Oh

If I could

I would take you by the hand

And lead you through this valley wide

And stand upon a mountain high

If I could

I would walk across the burning, desert sand

Restore your soul with sweeter water

From a better land

But I’m sure that in my strongest hour

I still could not possess the power

To bring you through the raging fire

You must withstand

But remember

Remember, Jesus can

I am sure that in my strongest hour

I still could not possess the power

To bring you through the raging fire

You must withstand

But remember that Jesus can

Remember, Jesus can

Jesus can

Ooo
