When I Lay My Burdens Down

When I Lay My Burdens Down - Oak Ridge Boys

When I lay my burdens down some day

Receive a crown that will never fade away

Tears are wiped from my eyes hearts bleed no more inside

When I lay my burdens some day

When I lay my burden down some day

I'll say hello to many friends of yesterday

Oh heaven's gates will open wide receive me on the other side

When I lay my burdens down some day

Long will be the tears of life I have long

Joy will take their place into heaven I have flown

So up here I will stay and be faithful all the way

Till' I lay my burdens down someday
