Rake -T does not identify tasks

I am trying to setup a Rake Task (without rails), and thus created a demo Hello World Task. However, upon running rake -T or rake --tasks nothing is returned, as if the task hasn't been identified. What am I doing wrong here?

enter image description here

Also When I run rake hello_world I get the following error:

➜  ~/GitHub/Cerner/test git:(master) ✗ rake hello_world
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'hello_world' (See the list of available tasks with `rake --tasks`)
/usr/share/rvm/gems/ruby-2.6.6/gems/rake-13.0.6/exe/rake:27:in `<top (required)>'
/home/hsbagga28/gems/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:22:in `eval'
/home/hsbagga28/gems/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:22:in `<main>'
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

[Update] The rakefile:

# frozen_string_literal: true

# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to Rake.
$LOAD_PATH.push File.expand_path('lib', __dir__)

I ended up creating a default Rakefile with:

# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to Rake.

require_relative "config/application"

Rails.application.load_tasks

After this rake -T seemed to return my task defined under lib/tasks
