CAST THY BURDEN ON THE LORD
1. Weary pilgrim on
life's pathway,
Struggling on
beneath thy load,
Hear these words of
consolation,
"Cast thy
burden on the Lord."
Refrain
Cast thy burden on
the Lord!
Cast thy burden on
the Lord!
And He will
strengthen thee,
Sustain and comfort
thee.
Cast thy burden on
the Lord.
2. Are thy tired
feet unsteady?
Does thy lamp no
light afford?
Is thy cross too
great and heavy?
"Cast thy
burden on the Lord.''
3. Are the ties of
friendship severed?
Hushed the voices
fondly heard?
Breaks thy heart
with weight of anguish?
"Cast thy
burden on the Lord.''
4. Does thy heart
with faintness falter?
Does thy mind
forget His word?
Does thy strength
succumb to weakness?
"Cast thy
burden on the Lord.''
5. He will hold
thee up from falling;
He will guide thy
steps aright;
He will strengthen
each endeavor;
He will keep thee
by His might.
