Paul Gerhardt wrote this hymn as an acrostic poem using the words of Psalm 37:5. He encourages Christians to entrust all their burdens to the true God. Because He created and sustains all things, we can rely on Him to guide us and call out to Him in prayer, trusting His love. Through trials, we continue to trust in Him, awaiting His time with patience. We know that He will keep His promise, as He has done in the cross of Jesus. As we confidently look forward to the eternal home we have with Jesus, He strengthens us to life faithfully.

The Hon. Rev. Scot Kerns, pastor at Faith Lutheran Church in Easton, PA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study LSB 754, “Entrust Your Days and Burdens.”
