When you're down and worried,
Lift your hands up to the sky ...
And He's glorified.
But when you look to the world,
There ain't nothin' you will find ...
But emptiness inside.
You've got to hand your cares over to Jesus
To get satisfied.

When I was down and troubled,
I found out just how many friends
Cared about my life.
And then my problems doubled,
And I filled up with discouragement ...
I broke down and cried.
But when I took my cares over to Jesus
I got satisfied.
You've got to take your cares over to Jesus ...
If you want to get satisfied.

He took me in His arms
And held me tight
He said, "Son, don't you worry --
I'll be right here by your side ...
Until you're sure you're satisfied."
And now I stand here as your witness
To the true and the tried ...
You've got to hand your cares over to Jesus
If you want to get satisfied.

So when you're down and troubled,
Lift holy hands up to the Light ...
And He's glorified.
Don't look back on the world,
'Cause there ain't nothin' left to find
But one bad disguise.
You've got to hand your cares over to Jesus
To get satisfied.
Hand your cares over to Jesus
If you want to get satisfied.
Hand your cares over to Jesus ...
Get satisfied.
Oh, get satisfied.
