Oh
why do you carry your burden alone
That burden so heavy to bear?
Why under its weight do you labor and groan
When Jesus is saying
in tenderest tone
My child
cast on Me every care?
To Him tell your troubles
He’ll give you relief
Whenever on Him you depend;
This blest Man of sorrows
acquainted with grief
To cries of His children will never be deaf
If only in faith they ascend.
When sickness or pain shall distress
He will heal
Or else give you strength to endure;
Our Savior
who suffered
will tenderly deal
With His stricken children
if they will but kneel
And ask this Physician to cure.
Then go to Him always
whatever befall
If sickness
or sorrow
or care;
If pain should disturb you
or sin
tell Him all
Then down at the cross humbly
trustingly fall
And leave every burden right there.
