Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #73 (1890) First Line: How gentle God's commands! Lyrics: 1 How gentle God's commands!
How kind his precepts are!
Come, cast your burdens on the Lord,
And trust his constant care.
2 Beneath his watchful eye
His saints securely dwell;
That hand which bears creation up
Shall guard his children well.
3 Why should this anxious load
Press down your weary mind?
Haste to your heavenly Father's throne,
And sweet refreshment find.
4 His goodness stands approved,
Unchanged from day to day:
I'll drop my burden at his feet,
And bear a song away. Topics: Close of Service; Cares; Close of Worship; Evening; God Benevolence; God Goodness; Cares; Close of Worship; Evening; God Benevolence; God Goodness Languages: English Tune Title: DENNIS
