(Lay your burden down)
                                        G/C
You've been tryin' hard to make it all alone
                                F
Tryin' hard to make it on your own
         C/E                                         Dm
And the strength you once were feelin', isn't there no more
         G7
And you think the wrong you've done, is just too much to be forgiven
         C               Em7
But you know that isn't true
               F           C/E          G7
Just lay your burden down,....He has Forgiven you

         C                       Ab
Lay your burden down, lay your burden down

Take your burden to the cross, and lay it down
         C                      Ab
Lay your burden down, lay your burden down
          Fm                                 C
Take your worries to the cross and lay them down
