Cast Thy Burden on the Lord

Author: W. J. K. Hymnal: The Old Story in Song Number Two #89 (1908) First Line: Weary pilgrim on life's pathway Lyrics: 1 Weary pilgrim on life's pathway Struggling on beneath thy load Hear these words of consolation, "Cast thy burden on the Lord." Refrain: Cast thy burden on the Lord! Cast thy burden on the Lord, And He will strengthen thee, sustain and comfort thee Cast thy burden on the Lord. 2 Are thy tired feet unsteady? Does thy lamp no light afford? Is thy cross too great and heavy? "Cast thy burden on the Lord." [Refrain] 3 Are the ties of friendship severed? Hushed the voices fondly heard? Breaks thy heart with weight of anguish? "Cast thy burden on the Lord." [Refrain] 4 Does thy heart with faintness falter? Does thy mind forget His word? Does thy strength succumb to weakness? "Cast thy burden on the Lord." [Refrain] 5 He will hold thee up from falling; He will guide thy steps aright; He will strengthen each endeavor; He will keep thee by His might. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Weary pilgrim on life's pathway]

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: W.J. Kirkpatrick Author of "Weary Pilgrim on Life's Pathway" in The New Canadian Hymnal William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
