1. The greater our need, the greater our saviour,
The greater our troubles, the more He abides,
The greater our sorrows, the more that he comforts,
And proves He is ever so close to our side.

2. The greater my burdens the more He is with me.
Though anguish is heavy and rough be the tide,
He calms the rough waters each hour He is near me,
And walks ever always, so close to my side.

3. Oh bring all your burdens to Jesus my saviour,
He'll take them away, and you will be blessed,
Although you may wonder what happened to your sins,
He took them as far as the east is from west.

End: Although you may wonder what happened to your sins,
He took them as far as the east is from west.
