Cast thy burden on the Lord;
Only lean upon his word:
thou shall soon have cause to bless
His eternal faithfulness.

Ever in the raging storm
thou shall see His cheering form,
Hear His pledge of coming aid:
“It is I, be not afraid.”

Cast thy burden at His feet;
Linger at His mercy seat:
He will lead thee by the hand
Gently to the better land.

He will gird thee by His power,
In thy weary, fainting hour:
Lean, then, loving, on His word;
Cast thy burden on the Lord.
