In the raging storms of duty’s call, He stills the winds, quiets our hearts. Like heavy stones, the tasks may mount, yet in Him, our shield, our fortress, we find our rest.

Christ, the Companion of our labor, walks the path with us. Our burdens He bears, our tasks He imbues with divine purpose.

Oh, the burdens of this world, mere whispers against the roar of His boundless grace. Stand firm in faith, for the load He carried, greater than our worldly toils.

As disciples of His love we labor, not as slaves to duty. Our every step, a stride on His divine design, His loving hand at work in us.

Expectations rise like the morning sun, yet unchanging remains His steadfast love. He, the Calmer of Seas, the Bearer of Burdens, the Guide in our tasks — our refuge, our strength, our peace.
