He Cares
by Barbara Philbrook

When you have problems and can't see how to get  through each day's affairs,
drop on your knees and give them to God He cares.

When  worries have  you feeling as though you are climbing an endless flight of stairs,
drop them off as you pray to God  He cares.

When your burdened with a life full of fears,
surrender them to God He cares.

When events are filled with sadness and your eyes overflow with tears,
give them to God He cares.

When calls from your family give you concern for your precious little dears,
take them to God He cares.

There is nothing that you can ever feel or go through,
that your Heavenly Father hasn't felt too.

There is no pain too deep, no sadness or fear so strong,
that God can not  give us the strength to go on.

There is no problem to big for God to solve,
no dispute too complex for God to resolve.

There is no emotion that we can feel or be burdened by,
that God can not use to our good on that you can rely.

God is there waiting with a loving compassionate embrace,
he will not force you but has reserved for you a special place.

The choice is there for you to make,
then everything that you are willing to surrender he will happily take.

The outcome will be an assurance that all things will turn out well,
even though by appearances one may not be able to tell.

Won't you join in with those who have known the victory,
and we'll all cry out with joy when we go home for eternity.
