Somebody Knows

Failing in strength when op­pressed by my foes

Somebody knows

some­bo­dy knows

Waiting for some­one to ban­ish my woes

Somebody knows

’tis Je­sus.

Somebody knows

some­bo­dy knows

When I am tempt­ed and tried by my foes;

He is the one who will keep me—

Somebody knows—’tis Je­sus.

Why should I fear when the care bil­lows roll?

Somebody knows

some­bo­dy knows;

When the deep sha­dows sweep ov­er my soul

Somebody knows

’tis Je­sus.

Wounded and help­less and sick with dis­tress

Somebody knows

some­bo­dy knows

Longing for home and a mo­ther’s ca­ress

Somebody knows

’tis Je­sus.
