Cast Thy Burden on the Lord

Cast thy bur­den on the Lord

Only lean up­on His Word;

Thou wilt soon have cause to bless

His eter­nal faith­ful­ness.

He sus­tains thee by His hand

He en­ables thee to stand;

Those whom Je­sus once hath loved

From His grace are nev­er moved.

Human coun­sels come to naught;

That op­pose which God hath wrought;

His com­pass­ion

love

and pow­er

Are the same for­ev­er­more.

Heav’n and earth may pass away

God’s free grace shall not de­cay;

He hath pro­mised to ful­fill

All the plea­sure of His will.

Jesus

guard­ian of Thy flock

Be Thy­self our con­stant rock;

Make us

by Thy pow­er­ful hand

Strong as Zi­on’s mount­ain stand.
