Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: The Hymnbook #105 (1955) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How gentle God's commands,
How kind His precepts are!
Come, cast your burdens on the Lord,
And trust His constant care.
2 Beneath His watchful eye
His saints securely dwell;
That hand which bears all nature up
Shall guide His children well.
3 Why should this anxious load
Press down your weary mind?
Haste to your Heavenly Father's throne,
And sweet refreshment find.
4 His goodness stands approved,
Down to the present day;
I'll drop my burden at His feet,
And bear a song away.
Amen. Topics: Contentment; God Guide; God Love and Fatherhood; Peace, Spiritual; God the Father His Love and Fatherhood Scripture: Psalm 55:22 Tune Title: DENNIS
