The trusting heart to Jesus clings,
Nor any ill forbodes,
But at the cross of Calv'ry sings:
Praise God for lifted loads!

Refrain:
Singing I go along life's road,
Praising the Lord, praising the Lord;
Singing I go along life's road,
For Jesus has lifted my load.

The passing days bring many cares;
"Fear not," I hear Him say;
And when my fears are turned to prayers,
The burdens slip away.

He tells me of my Father's love
And neverslumb'ring eye;
My everlasting King above
Will all my needs supply.

When to the throne of grace I flee,
I find the promise true;
The mighty arms upholding me
Will bear my burdens too.
