The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration ‎#598

598. Cast Thy Burden upon the Lord

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 by made ashamed
that wait upon Thee.

Amen.
