Author: Edward Henry Joy Hymnal: The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration #418 (1986) Meter: Irregular First Line: Is there a heart o'er bound by sorrow? Refrain First Line: All your anxiety, all your care Lyrics: 1 Is there a heart o’erbound by sorrow?
Is there a life weighed down by care?
Come to the cross - each burden bearing,
All your anxiety — leave it there.
Refrain:
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat - leave it there;
Never a burden He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
2 No other friend so swift to help you,
No other friend so quick to hear;
No other place to leave your burden,
No other one to hear your prayer. [Refrain]
3 Come then at once - delay no longer!
Heed His entreaty kind and sweet;
You need not fear a disappointment -
You shall find peace at the mercy seat. [Refrain] Topics: Comfort and Encouragement; Funeral Hymns; Invitation and Acceptance Tune Title: ALL YOUR ANXIETY
