Verse 1

I thank thee, Lord, that I can cast My burdens all on thee; Tho’ I be tempted, thou has died To bear them all for me.

O Jesus, I will cling to thee, I’ll love thee more and more; I’ll place my trembling hand in thine Until the battle’s o’er.

Tho’ tried and pressed, yet I will trust, This one thing I can do; I’ll lean upon thy loving breast, Thou’lt guide me safely thro’.

Verse 3
