Lyrics
I took my troubles to the LORD and He heard my cry
I took my troubles to the LORD and He answered my prayer
From the depths of despair when I felt His presence there
He made me aware that He cares for me
He set my feet upon the Rock, in my heart I heard Him knock
And when the door I did unlock, He was holding the key to my heart
He came in and greeted me with love
So much joy and peace I could not get enough
Then He took my sin to bring release
He is the God of my peace
From the depths of despair when I feel Your presence there
You make me aware that You care for me
You set my feet upon the Rock, in my heart I hear You knock
And when the door I do unlock, You are holding the key to my heart
You come in and greet me with love
So much joy and peace I cannot get enough
Then You took my sin to bring release
You are the God of my peace
Cast your cares upon Him ?cause He cares for you
Cast your cares upon Him ?cause He cares for you
Come to me all you heavy laden and I will give you rest
Come to me all you heavy laden and I will give you rest
Take your troubles to the Lord, He will hear Your cry
Take your troubles to the Lord, He will answer Your prayer
From the depths of despair you?ll feel His presence there
And He?ll make you aware that He cares for you
He?ll set your feet upon the Rock, in your heart you?ll hear Him knock
And when the door you unlock, He?ll be holding the key to your heart
He?ll come in and greet you with love
So much joy and peace you cannot get enough
Then He?ll take your sin and bring release
And He?ll be the God of your peace
