Is your heart burdened?
Do you shed another tear?
Are you heavy with worry,
With sorrow or fear?

Cast your cares on the Lord,
And He will sustain you;
Cast your cares on the Lord,
Your hope He will renew.



Is the Lord’s ear too heavy
To hear you when you call?
Is His arm too short
To lift you when you fall?

Surely the Lord God
Is mighty to save;
He can restore all things,
Even from depths of the grave.



How He loves you,
Your burden He longs to bear;
So upon His precious shoulder
Go and cast your care.

His ear delights
To hear you when you call;
His arm He stretches
To lift you when you fall.



Cast your cares on the Lord,
And He will sustain you;
Cast your cares on the Lord,
Your hope He will renew.

Sing now with joy,
For you have nothing to fear;
You are in Jesus’ arms,
You have cast your care.

Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will sustain you;
he will never let
the righteous be shaken.
Psalm 55:22
