435. Cast Thy Cares upon the Savior

1 Cast thy cares upon the Savior,
He will bear them all for thee;
And thy soul which now is burdened,
Shall be kept forever free.

Refrain:
Cast thy cares upon the Savior,
He will gladly bear them all;
Even though they seem like mountains,
Even though they may be small.

2 Cast thy burdens all on Jesus,
Leaning on His gentle breast;
And if storms do gather round thee,
Sweet will be thy peaceful rest. [Refrain]

3 Put your trust alone in Jesus,
Trusting not in human arm;
And if cast within the furnace,
He will keep thee from all harm. [Refrain]

4 Live the life the word demands you,
Then the foe you need not fear;
For while standing on the promise,
Jesus Christ is always near. [Refrain]
