Author: Katharine S. Wadsworth Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: In sorrow I came to the Saviour one day Refrain First Line: He took ev'ry burden away Lyrics: 1 In sorrow I came to the Saviour one day, My heart was all broken with sin; I prayed that the burden be taken away, And quickly He spoke peace within. Refrain: He took ev’ry burden away, He took ev’ry burden away; His love, so divine, shall forever be mine, He took ev’ry burden away. 2 I follow Him now wheresoever He leads, Rejoicing in His love divine; Through wonderful grace He supplies all my needs And many rich blessings are mine. [Refrain] 3 And now His sweet praise in my soul ne’er shall cease, I love Him each day more and more; His mercies and blessings shall daily increase, Until all my labors are o’er.
