Verse 1
If the world from you withhold
of its silver and its gold,
And you have to get along with meager fare,
Just remember, in His Word,
how He feeds the little bird,
Take your burden to the Lord
and leave it there
Chorus
Leave it there, leave it there,
Take your burden to the Lord
and leave it there,
If you trust and never doubt,
He will surely bring you out,
Take your burden to the Lord
and leave it there
Verse 2
If your body suffers pain
and your health you can’t regain,
And your soul is almost sinking in despair,
Jesus knows the pain you feel,
He can save and He can heal,
Take your burden to the Lord
and leave it there

SCRIPTURE READING
OUR PRAYER LIST
Matthew 6:28-33 NKJV
Eva Mae Jackson
28. “So why do you worry about
clothing? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow: they neither
toil nor spin;
29. and yet I say to you that even
Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these.
30. Now if God so clothes the grass of
the field, which today is, and
tomorrow is thrown into the oven,
will He not much more clothe you,
O you of little faith?
31. “Therefore do not worry, saying,
‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we
drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’
32. For after all these things the Gentiles
seek. For your heavenly Father
knows that you need all these things.
33. But seek first the kingdom of God
and His righteousness, and all these
things shall be added to you.
Lucille Durr
We are praying for our
Presiding Bishop Charles E. Blake,
Lady Mae, and the entire Church
of God in Christ family.
