1 Are you heavy-hearted, sad and weary?
Take your burdens to Jesus;
Cast your care on Him for He is near thee—
Take your burdens to Him.

Refrain:
Take your burdens to Jesus,
Take your burdens to Jesus,
All your load Jesus will carry—
Take your burdens to Him.

2 When temptation on your soul is pressing—
Take your burdens to Jesus;
Go to Him, your ev’ry sin confessing—
Take your burdens to Him. [Refrain]

3 In the long and weary hours of sickness—
Take your burdens to Jesus;
When you know and feel your mortal weakness—
Take your burdens to Him. [Refrain]

4 Nothing is too small for Him to carry—
Take your burdens to Jesus;
Nothing is too great, why longer tarry? —
Take your burdens to Him. [Refrain]
