1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Jesus cares about your burden.
He wants you to take it to Him in prayer and leave it there — don’t pick it up again.
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 enemies assail and your heart begins to fail, — Don’t forget that God in Heaven answers prayer; — He will make a way for you and will lead you safely through — 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
