Leave your Burdens at the Riverside.....

by Carol Allen

There is a place down by the Riverside

where I leave my burdens all behind....

for I listen attentively to a still voice

who gently whispers from the heavens......

Come to me you who are weary and burdened

and I will give you rest.......

Look at these scars on my hands and body

from thorns and nails embedded into my flesh....

this I undertook for you because I love you

with an everlasting and unfailing Love...

Hand over all your troubles and burdens to me....

Trust in me to handle them for you

Have Patience in me to carry your load......

for however heavy or light the burden is

I love you forever and have promised

to supply all your needs..............

I will never leave you nor forsake

I am always with you................

Leave all your burdens and troubles

down by the riverside...............
