I MUST TELL JESUS

When the choir sings this melody during a quiet moment of prayer or reflection, you can almost feel the congregation exhale. "I Must Tell Jesus" is one of those deeply personal hymns that gives voice to the quiet struggles we all carry into the pews. The verses speak honestly about trials, burdens, and the lure of the world, reminding us that we were never meant to shoulder these weights alone.

Andrew Lawrence Ewoo's arrangement treats the classic text with a gentle, prayerful reverence. The harmony supports the melody without overpowering the vulnerability of the words. As we move from the verses into the refrain, the music swells with a sense of urgent conviction. Singing "I must tell Jesus!" repeatedly is not just a musical motif; it is a heartfelt plea and a declaration of trust. It is a fitting piece for Lenten reflections, communion, or any service where the liturgy calls for deep, personal reliance on God's grace.
