Leave It There

Psalm 55:22 Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

Do you ever face giants greater then yourself?  We all do. 


We can learn from David, whose own son turned on him and his best friends tried to kill him. 


He knew victory was in the Lord and so is our’s.


Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. 


Leave It There

______________


If the world from you withhold of its silver and its gold,    —    And you have to get along with meager fare,    —    Just remember, in His Word, how He feeds the little bird;    —    Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.


CHORUS:

Leave it there, leave it there,    —    Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there;    —    If you trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out;    —    Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.


If your body suffers pain and your health you can’t regain,    —    And your soul is almost sinking in despair,    —    Jesus knows the pain you feel, He can save and He can heal;    —    Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.


When your youthful days are gone and old age is stealing on,    —    And your body bends beneath the weight of care;    —    He will never leave you then, He’ll go with you to the end;    —    Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.


Charles A. Tindley   1916
