And he was in the hinder part of the ship,
asleep on a pillow: and they awake him,
and say unto him, Master, carest thou not
that we perish?

DOES JESUS CARE?
1. 
Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
Too deeply for mirth and song;
As the burdens press, and the cares distress,
And the way grows weary and long?
Refrain
O yes, He cares - I know He cares!
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary, The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares. (He cares)
2.
Does Jesus care when my way is dark
With a nameless dread and fear?
As the daylight fades into deep night shades,
Does He care enough to be near?
Refrain
3.
Does Jesus care when I've tried and failed
To resist some temptation strong;
When for my deep grief There is no relief,
Though my tears flow all the night long?
Refrain
4.
Does Jesus care when I've said goodbye
To the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches till it nearly breaks
Is it aught to Him? Does He see?
Refrain
