Christian Camp Songs & Chorus Hymns #20

I spent many years in my late teens and early twenties working at Christian Camps.  I even met my husband at a Christian camp.  These wonderful memories of great experiences make Christian camp songs very special to me.

On top of featuring an old hymn each month in what I call "Old Fashioned Sunday Hymn Sing" - I will also be featuring a chorus hymn every month - ENJOY!
Today's featured song is "Reach Out to Jesus" - words and music by Ralph Carmichael.  Mr. Carmichael is considered to be a pioneer in "pop contemporary" Christian music.  He is most well known for his song "The Magic of Christmas" sung my Nat King Cole.


I have included a YouTube video of this wonderful hymn (see below the lyrics).  The video attached is sung by Elvis Presley - ENJOY!


Reach Out to Jesus
Words & Music by Ralph Carmichael

1. Is your burden heavy as you bear it all alone?  Does the road you travel harbor danger yet unknown? ---  Are you growing weary in the struggle of it all?  Jesus will help you when on His name you call.
CHORUS


2.  Is the life you're living filled with sorrow and despair?  Does the future press you with its worry and its care?----  Are you tired and friend-less, have you almost lost your way?  Jesus will help you, just come to Him today.

CHORUS



Chorus
He is always there, hearing every prayer, faithful and true.  Walking by our side in His love we hide all the day thru.  When you get discouraged just remember what to do;  Reach out to Jesus, He's reaching out to you.   you.
