Lay My Burden Down

Larry Norman * Track #5 On A Moment in Time

Lay My Burden Down Lyrics

I wanna climb that mountain, cross over to the promised land
I'm gonna climb that mountain, cross over to the promised land
There's a scarlet fountain where once the cross did stand

My days are numbered, but there's no sorrow when I sleep
My days are surely numbered, there's no sorrow when I sleep
He comforts those who stay within his keep

Life is filled with mystery, our future's in his hands
And God controls the history more than we can understand
He lets the devil shake us just to wake us from our dreams
But he never will forsake us, no matter what it sometimes seems

Well my heart is heavy but I'm standing on the solid rock
Yeah my heart is heavy but I'm standing on the solid rock
The sheep know the shepherd when they hear their master talk

Satan is our enemy, darkness is his power
Yes, Satan is our enemy, and darkness is his power
He roams the streets like a lion seeking whom next to devour

Misdirection, distraction are subtle weapons he can use
Misdirection, distraction are subtle weapons he can use
'Cause you can think your hands are sinless
When indifference is what you choose

Yeah, when my work is done I'm gonna lay my burden down
When my work is done I'm gonna lay my burden down
I'm gonna leave my troubles, gonna head for higher ground
