Take Thou the burden, Lord; / I am exhausted with this heavy load. / My tired hands tremble, / And I stumble, stumble / Along the way. / Oh, lead with Thine unfailing arm / Again today. // Unless Thou lead me, Lord, / The road I journey on is all too hard. / Through trust in Thee alone / Can I go on. // Yet not self alone / Thus do I groan; / My people’s sorrows are the load I bear. / Lord, hear my prayer – / May Thy strong hand / Strike off all chains / That load my well-loved land. / God, draw her close to Thee! / Amen.
