Lay It Down Lyrics


The weight of the world
It feels like mountains
But You move mountains
Yes You do

To those who are thirsty
You're a fountain
And living water
It flows from You

I got your invitation
That You could set me free
I can't believe You'd do that for me

You say your yoke is easy
You say your burden's light
You take a soul that's weary
Give comfort every time
And when my heart is heavy
I know without a doubt
There's nothing You won't carry
So oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

The Devil he knows
He can't touch me
Cause Lord You bought me
With your blood

The guilt and shame
They roll right off me
Til all I carry
Is your love

You say your yoke is easy
You say your burden's light
You take a soul that's weary
Give comfort every time
And when my heart is heavy
I know without a doubt
There's nothing You won't carry
So oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

What could I do if my hands were open?
Who could I be if I was really free?
What if I trusted what you have spoken?
What could it change if I believed?

What could I do if my hands were open?
Who could I be if I was really free?
What if I trusted what you have spoken?
What could it change if I believed? Yeah!

You say your yoke is easy
You say your burden's light
You take a soul that's weary
Give comfort every time
And when my heart is heavy
I know without a doubt
There's nothing You won't carry
So oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

I lay, I lay it down
I lay, I lay it down
Oh Lord
I lay it down

You say your burden's light
You take a soul that's weary
Give comfort every time
And when my heart is heavy
I know without a doubt
There's nothing You won't carry, Lord
So I lay it down
