When life’s burdens get so heavy

And it seems I’m all alone

I cast my care on Jesus and come boldly to His throne

I find His grace sufficient when His promises I heed

For His very life He sacrificed, and He lives to intercede

He is the Lord of lords

And when He speaks, winds and waves obey

When Jesus whispers, “Peace be still”

Then darkness turns to day

And as I’m trusting in my Saviour’s Word

Doubts and fears all cease

And beneath the shelter of His wings

I’m at rest in perfect peace

I will seek for souls in darkness

Calv’ry’s love with them to share

Empowered by His Spirit, I will follow anywhere

For I know whate’er befalls me, my Lord is in control

And as my mind is stayed on Him

Perfect peace He gives my soul
