The Burden Bearer

Is there a heart that is willing to lay

1 Is there a heart that is willing to lay
Burdens on Jesus' breast?
He is so loving and gentle and true,
Come unto Him and rest.

Refrain:
Lord, it is I who need Thy love!
Need Thy strength and pow'r;
O keep me, use me, and hold me fast!
Each moment, each day, each hour.

2 Is there a heart that is lonely today
Needing a faithful Friend?
Jesus will always keep close by your side,
Loving you to the end. [Refrain]

3 Is there a heart that has fail'd to o'ercome
Sin with its mighty pow'r?
Jesus is stronger than Satan and sin,
Trust Him this very hour, [Refrain]

4 Is there a heart that is longing to bring
Blessing to some lost soul?
Jesus is willing the weakest to use,
Let Him Thy life control. [Refrain]
