Cast Your Burden on the Lord MP3 Recording featuring vocals by Heather Prusse :   Hi-speed    Dialup    Download MP3 Accompaniment track :   Hi-speed    Dialup    Download View/print sheet music:     Hymn     SATB w/organ     SATB w/piano     Medium-voice solo     Violin obbligato (works with any score except Hymn version) "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee..." Psalm 55:22 (KJV) “...yet will I not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands...” Isaiah 49:15, 16 (KJV) After several years of debating, I have now done a solo arrangement for this song. It was originally a choral only, meant to be accompanied on the organ. Since organ accompaniments don't work for some choirs, I have also included an adaptation for piano. The piano accompaniment for the solo version is somewhat different from the choral version. Lyrics: Cast your burden on the Lord and he will make it light Come unto him, ye heavy laden Find your rest in Christ Bring him your sorrows, all your grief Lay every weakness at his feet He will sustain you, give you peace And lead you into life Cast your burden on the Lord and he will heal your soul Place on his altar all your sin and he will bear its toll Bring him your blindness born of pride Give him your broken heart to bind It was for this he bled and died: That he might make you whole Cast your burden on the Lord and he will carry you home He will attend you and defend through perils yet unknown Put your unwavering trust in him Christ, your constant heavenly friend Hath graven you in the palms of his hands And ne'er forsakes his own Church Music Contest: Anthem division--Award of Distinction 2005 (version with organ).
