Cast Thy Burden upon the Lord

Cast Thy Burden upon the Lord

Smoothly

Cast thy burden upon the Lord,

And he shall sustain thee.

He never will suffer the righteous to fall.

He is at thy right hand.

Thy mercy, Lord, is great

And far above the heav’ns.

Let none be made ashamed

That wait upon thee.

Text: Julius Schubring, 1806–1889; adapted from the Psalms

Music: Felix Mendelssohn, 1809–1847
