Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Alfred Henry Ackley, circa 1910.
Music: Bentley DeForest Ackley
Falling in strength when oppressed by my foes,
Somebody knows, somebody knows,
Waiting for someone to banish my woes,
Somebody knows, 'tis Jesus.
Refrain
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.
Refrain
Wounded and helpless and sick with distress,
Somebody knows, somebody knows,
Longing for home and a mother's caress,
Somebody knows, 'tis Jesus.
Refrain
