THOSE HOME BURDENS.

("In all thy ways acknowledge Him." Prov. 3:6.)
PERHAPS to thee thy burden seems A heavy load; Perhaps no sunshine ever gleams Upon thy road; Perhaps—perhaps thou chosest, when Thy choice was made, The path that ever since has been Within the shade. O soul, let not thy light be dim; "In all thy ways acknowledge Him."
Come, cast thy burden on the Lord— He cares for thee; Thy path He'll brighten thro' His word, Till thou canst see. A creature He hath made of you— Let Him direct, And thou wilt find thy pathway true In each respect. O soul, to Him all praises be, For Christ, the Lord, hath died for thee.
When social life or business care Thy mind would fill, Just take it to the Lord in prayer, And ask His will. Then, tho the world may laugh and say, "Thy sight is dim," Take courage, and from day to day Acknowledge Him. O soul, let angels now record, "I'm not ashamed to own my Lord." —Selected.
