When I Lay My Burden Down

Chorus
Glory glory, hallelujah, When I lay my burdens down
Glory glory, hallelujah, When I lay my burdens down

All of my troubles will be over, When I lay my burdens down,... (x2)

I'll go home to meet my Savior, When I lay my burdens down,... (x2)

I will see, see my mother, When I lay my burdens down,... (x2)
