Hymn #64
How Gentle God’s Commands
Lyrics
Verse 1
How gentle God’s commands!
How kind His precepts are!
Come, cast your burdens on the Lord,
And trust His constant care.
Verse 2
Beneath His watchful eye
His saints securely dwell;
That hand which bears all nature up
Shall guard His children well.
Verse 3
Why should this anxious load
Press down your weary mind?
Haste to your Heavenly Father’s throne,
And sweet refreshment find.
Verse 4
His goodness stands approved
Through each succeeding day;
I’ll drop my burden at His feet,
And bear a song away.
