1  Cast thou thy care upon the Lord,

       The care that loads thy heart;

    Take Him this moment at His word,

       And let Him do His part.

 2  The need is deep, the care is great,

       The burden hard to bear;

    Roll it on Him with all its weight,

       And leave it resting there.

 3  This heavy thing, it is His gift,

       His portion, thee to bless;

    Give it Him back; what He shall lift

       No more on thee shall press.

 4  Cast all thy care, and not a part,

       The great things and the small;

    The Lord's all-loving, mighty heart

       Has room and thought for all.

 5  Yes, He will ponder every care,

       Consider each detail;

    Thyself, thy burden, let Him bear;

       He will not, cannot, fail.
