Author: Phillip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #17 (1957) First Line: How gentle God's commands! 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 guard 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,
Unchanged from day to day:
I'll drop my burden at His feet,
And bear a song away.
Amen. Topics: God the Father His Care and Guidance Languages: English Tune Title: DENNIS
