Verso 1

Tried to do it on my own
But every time I tried to fell down
Got sick and tired of all the pain
I knew I had to turn my life around
Mama said you'd never leave me
Said you'd always be there for me

Refrão

That's when I laid my burdens down
I traded shame in for my crown
My soul was in the lost and found
Until I laid my burdens down

Verso 2

Now I live to testify
That Jesus blood was my lifeline
Just surrender to his plans
And he will make your life worth it
When you're weak is when he's strong
I'll tell the world wherever I go

Refrão

That's when I laid my burdens down
I traded shame in for my crown
My soul was in the lost and found
Until I laid my burdens down

Pós-refrão

Until I laid my burdens down
Until I laid my burdens down
Until I laid my burdens down

Ponte 1

Friends don't treat me like they used to
Since I laid my burdens down
I feel better so much better
Since I laid my burdens down
Burdens down burdens down
Since I laid my burdens down
Burdens down oh burdens down
Oh burdens down
Burdens down

Ponte 2

I'm going home to live with Jesus
Since I laid my burdens down
I'm going home to live with Jesus
Since I laid my burdens down
Glory glory Hallelujah
Since I laid my burdens down
Glory glory Hallelujah
Since I laid my burdens down
Since I laid my burdens down
