1 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.
Chorus:
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 Savior's Word,
doubts and fears all cease.
And beneath the shelter of His wings,
I'm at rest in perfect peace.
2 I will seek for souls in darkness,
Calvary's love with them to share.
Empowered by His Spirit, I will follow anywhere.
For I know whate'er befall me, my Lord is in control;
and as my mind is stayed on Him, perfect peace He gives my soul.
