Lyrics and Music: Edward H. Joy. Mod. R.Mc.
1. Is there a heart here burdened by sorrow?
Is there a life weighed down by care?
Come to the cross, each worry bearing;
All your anxiety—leave it there.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a worry He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
2. No other friend so swift to help you,
No other friend so quick to hear,
No other place to leave your burden,
No other one to hear your prayer.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a worry He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
3. Come then at once; delay no longer!
Hear now His offer kind and sweet,
You need not fear a disappointment;
You shall find peace at the mercy seat.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a worry He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!

Lyrics and Music: Edward H. Joy
Is there a heart bent o’erbound by sorrow?
Is there a life weighed down by care?
Come to the cross, each burden bearing;
All your anxiety—leave it there.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a burden He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
No other friend so swift to help you,
No other friend so quick to hear,
No other place to leave your burden,
No other one to hear your prayer.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a burden He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
Come then at once; delay no longer!
Heed His entreaty kind and sweet,
You need not fear a disappointment;
You shall find peace at the mercy seat.
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a burden He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus!
