Give It Over To Jesus
By George Thurlow
Why is it my friend that you insist
On keeping your load of cares, When Jesus died and paid the price Your sorrows He longs to bear? Why should you stay so miserable, Your day so filled with strife; Just give it over to Jesus That's why He gave His life? Why do you let the stress of life Eat at your peace of mind; If you put the Kingdom first Then His rest you'll find? Why do you care what others think There's only One to please; The Author and Finisher of our faith And His hands hold the keys? Why do you let your worries Get the best of you; For He has promised abundant life And to provide for you? And why hold on to anger And things from long ago; Christ will heal the bitterness, But you must forgive also? My friend He's the only answer For all your hurts and cares; Take them to the foot of the Cross And then just leave them there. |
