| Text: | Cast Thy Burden on the Lord |
| Author: | Rowland Hill |
| Tune: | MERCY |
| Arranger: | Edwin P. Parker |
| Composer: | Louis M. Gottschalk |
1 Cast thy burden on the Lord,
Only lean upon His Word;
Thou shalt soon have cause to bless
His eternal faithfulness.
2 Ever in the raging storm
Thou shalt see His cheering form,
Hear His pledge of coming aid:
"It is I, be not afraid."
3 He will gird thee by His pow'r,
In thy weary fainting hour;
Lean then, loving, on His Word;
Cast thy burden on the Lord.
