Lyrics
There is no problem too big God cannot solve it.
There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it.
There is no storm too dark God cannot calm it.
There is no sorrow too deep, He cannot soothe it.
(Chorus)
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders.
I know , my brother, that He will carry you.
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders.
I know, my sister, that He will carry you.
(Bridge)
He said, Come unto Me all who are weary, and I will give you rest.

Meaning & Inspiration
The song centers on God’s ability to sustain people through burdens that appear impossible to bear. Its images of an immovable mountain, a dark storm, and profound sorrow give concrete form to fear and hardship. Against each image, the lyric places divine strength and compassion. The repeated assurance that God can carry a burden rests on Christ bearing the weight of the world, making the chorus both a confession of faith and a word of comfort.
The closing invitation, “Come unto Me all who are weary, and I will give you rest,” closely echoes Jesus’ call in Matthew 11. The song also shares the movement of Psalm 55:22, where a burden is entrusted to the Lord because he sustains the faithful. Rather than denying pain, the lyric names sorrow and exhaustion before directing attention toward God’s care. Its simple repetition reinforces a central Christian hope: no crisis exceeds God’s power, and no suffering person lies beyond his sustaining presence.
