HE CARETH FOR YOU.

How sweet ’mid earth’s sorrow, Its burden, its tears,— ’Mid the hopes ever strangely Conflicting with fears— Are the words that are written, Both sacred and true: “All your care cast upon Him— He careth for you!”
Yes, God careth for us, Oh, blessed relief! For to him we may carry Our heart’s deepest grief! No, not a burden so great, Or trifle so small, But our Father in heaven Will listen to all!
Could we this remember When burdened with care, And then haste to find refuge In confident prayer. His great love all unchanging, While to it we cling, To our poor sunken spirits An answer would bring!
Oh, he careth for you! Ah! yes, even though His kind hand may present you The cup full of woe; ’Tis only the dark valley— The valley of clay, Through which kindly he’ll lead us To eternal day.
Yes, he careth for you! Though daily we dread The dark mantle of sorrow, So oft round us spread, Still our Father in heaven Doth our sorrows know, And in love he comes for us, Remembering our woe.
Oh haste, then! oh haste, then! Unburden thy heart, And receive the sweet rapture His love e’er imparts, Till at last, through our Saviour, We enter that home Where all sin, care, and sorrow Are ever unknown! —Christian Herald.
