“Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?”<\/span><\/p>\n

Where is God when I have great need and my heart is breaking? Does He really care about my personal struggles? Does He care that I feel as if I am at the end of my rope? Does He care when the one who is dearest to me dies?<\/p>\n

Frank Graeff was a minister who had the reputation for always being happy, optimistic and had a sunny disposition. In the spite of his normally up-beat nature, he was called upon to endure severe trials in his life.<\/p>\n

It was while he was going through one of these ordeals that he wrote the words of today’s hymn. The promise he found in 1 Peter 5:7 was especially meaningful to him: “Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” Think of his struggles and finding hope as you enjoy this week’s hymn. The music was composed by J. Lincoln Hall.<\/p>\n

“Does Jesus Care?<\/a>”<\/p>\n

Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
\nToo deeply for mirth or song,
\nAs the burdens press, and the cares distress
\nAnd the way grows weary and long?<\/p>\n

Refrain: <\/strong>Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
\nHis heart is touched with my grief;
\nWhen the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
\nI know my Savior cares.<\/p>\n

Does Jesus care when my way is dark
\nWith a nameless dread and fear?
\nAs the daylight fades into deep night shades,
\nDoes He care enough to be near?<\/p>\n

Refrain: <\/strong>Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
\nHis heart is touched with my grief;
\nWhen the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
\nI know my Savior cares.<\/p>\n

Does Jesus care when I’ve tried and failed
\nTo resist some temptation strong;
\nWhen for my deep grief there is no relief,
\nThough my tears flow all the night long?<\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong> Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
\nHis heart is touched with my grief;
\nWhen the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
\nI know my Savior cares.<\/p>\n

Does Jesus care when I’ve said “goodbye”
\nTo the dearest on earth to me,
\nAnd my sad heart aches till it nearly breaks,
\nIs it aught to Him? Does He see?<\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong> Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares,
\nHis heart is touched with my grief;
\nWhen the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
\nI know my Savior cares.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
