When I Find I Am Laden

Give me strengths, Dear Lord of Mercy
To endure my trials of life;
Give me strength to suffer hardships -
Strengths, to suffer grief and strife;
Let me-never-yield to struggles
Trust and faith I have in You;
Give me strengths that do not waver
In the trials I suffer through

Chorus:
When I find I am laden with cares of the day
I turn to sweet Jesus who lights up my way
When I'm sick, overburdened, weary and discouraged
I will cast my burden upon the Lord
And He will sustain me
When I find I am laden
With a heavy load a song can lift up from the planet earth
I will ask Him to share the load with me

Many times,my faith is tested
By the griefs I'm made to bear;
Trust is challenged-by my heartaches;
Faith-by my unanswered prayers;
Give me strengths, in all such moments
To be strong and Christian, true-
With a trust that does not waver
And a faith, forever, true

Repeat Chorus

He knows of my feelings, each heartache and bruise
He gives me strength and courage and aching limbs He soothes
He gives me confidence that I sometimes lack
He lightens the load I bear on my back
When I became the weakest one of all
You lifted my soul out of the mud and mire
And helped me keep my feet on solid ground standing strong forever

Repeat Chorus
