 Have You Taken It To Jesus?

Have you taken it to Jesus?
Have you left your burden there?
Does He tenderly support you?
Have you rolled on Him your care?
O, the sweet unfailing refuge
Of the everlasting arms;
In their loving clasp enfolded
Nothing worries or alarms.

Have you taken it to Jesus,
Just the thing that's pressing now?
Are you trusting Him completely
With the when, the where, and how?
Oh, the joy of full surrender
Of our life, our plans, our all;
Proving, far above our asking
That God answers when we call.

Have you taken it to Jesus?
'Tis the only place to go
If you want the burden lifted
And a solace for your woe,
Oh, the blessedness to nestle
Like a child upon His breast;
Finding ever, as He promised
Perfect comfort, peace, and rest.

 Real nice poem.

Yes we sometimes forget to take our burdens to our Father the one and only person that can help us carry the burdens.
