1 O trust thyself to Jesus
when thou art full of care,
When life with all its problems
seems more than you can bear;
Then is the time for taking
thy burdens all to Him,
And, on His Word relying,
know peace and joy within.

2 He’s able to defend thee
from every weary care,
From every weight of sorrow
that would thy soul ensnare;
He’s able to deliver,
to tear these bands away,
And, wondrous light revealing,
change darkness into day.

3 O Jesus, loving Savior,
fulfill this truth in me,
And save me from mistreating
the care that comes from Thee;
O lead me on in knowledge
to see Thee as Thou art,
And in a higher glory
possess my longing heart.
