Colonel Edward H. Joy (1871-1949) had a long career as a Salvation Army officer who served in several administrative appointments in the United Kingdom, Canada, and South Africa from 1894 to 1938. Throughout his ministry, he wrote the words and music to many well-loved songs, including the melody featured here, “All Your Anxiety.” It is a song of invitation, as stated in the chorus:
All your anxiety, all your care,
Bring to the mercy seat, leave it there,
Never a burden He cannot bear,
Never a friend like Jesus.
