Cast all your care on Him, for He cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7
Words & Music: Virgil P. Cassaday, in Rodeheaver’s Gospel Songs, by Homer A. Rodeheaver & Charles H. Gabriel (Chicago, Illinois: Rodeheaver, 1922), number 15 (🔊 pdf nwc) (this book misspells his name as Cassady
).
If you know where to get a good photo of Cassaday (head & shoulders, at least 200×300 pixels),
When your life is burdened with a load of care,
And you need a helper good and true;
When your soul is sinking into dark despair,
Oh, remember, Jesus loves you.
Refrain
Oh, remember, Jesus loves you,
And He ever watches you;
When the days are long,
And everything goes wrong,
Oh, remember, Jesus loves you.
When the day is ended and the shadows fall,
And you feel discouraged, sad and blue;
When the lurking tempter would your life enthrall,
Oh, remember, Jesus loves you.
Refrain
When the world has left you, and you stand alone,
And you know not what is best to do,
Seek the one true helper whose great love is known—
Oh, remember, Jesus loves you.
Refrain
