Cast Your Burden
by Barbara Philbrook

We read and claimed the Promise made in Ps.55:22,
we cast our  burdens upon The Lord and he sustained us just as he promised to do.

Now let me say we are not  special cases to God not in any way,
we just followed his instructions he'll take care of you in the very same way.

There is such a wonderful excitement when you follow God's direction,
and things turn out with such perfection.

Cast your burden upon the Lord and He shall sustain thee,
are you aware that those words apply to you and me?

God didn't give us his Word because He had nothing better to do,
no these words were to be a guidance and a strength to me and you.

If you will seek God and the truths in his Holy Word,
you'll be amazed at the conviction you''ll  have that each of your petitions are really heard.

God does not have any favorites in this world you'll see,
he'll do the same for you as he's done for me.

Yes cast your burdens on the Lord no matter what they may be,
and God will sustain you and set you free.

It is such a blessing to know I do not have to face this life's problems all alone,
God is there to sustain me the proof of this I've been shown.

Won't you join in on the victory that God gives to all who seek to find,
then when we are called to go home you won't be left behind.
