Take These Burdens...

A dear friend, Cecilia, sang this song at church a few weeks ago. Both she and I are going through a "storm" right now in our lives however we both know that God is in control of everything. It's important to lay our burdens down before him and remember that he rescues us from our burdens and sufferings. I wanted to post the lyrics to this song for everyone to read. No matter what your burden is in your life, know that God will redeem you from them!

Take These Burdens, Written by Janet Paschal
Heavenly Father, This is your daughter, I need an answer
There's so much worry, So much trouble in my soul
But I have always found solutions, In these moments here with you
So take these burdens, and do what only You can do.
You've been my anchor so many times, Lord, through rough waters
So just hold me steady, this time I'm tossin' to and fro
But I know you're able to heal this heartache
'Cause you've always seen me through
Take these burdens and do what only You can do.
Chorus: Calm the storm,
Stop the strong wind from blowing in on me,
If I must go through the valley-give me peace,
I want to trust You,
So give me strength, Lord
Just to hold on tight to You
So take these burdens and do what only You can do.

This song is from Janet's CD titled "Songs for a Lifetime". Thank you DD for sharing it with me!
