Lay My Burden Down Chords by Caroline Herring

_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
When [D] I lay my [G] burden down
I'll [C] hear no mourners [G] outside my window
Put [D] my body [G] in the ground
Because [C] my spirit [G] will be free [D] at last
And I'll be flying _ [B] in the _ darkness
[C] I'll ride the wind [G] without a [D] sound
[G] When I lay my burden down _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When [D] I see that [G] great green valley
The [C] haunting shadows will [G] fade behind me
A [D] golden highway stretched out [G] before me
And [C] I will walk [G] into the _ sunrise _
With the lion _ [B] and the lamb
[C] And the _ beast [G] of the field
When your secret is revealed

[D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
When [D] I lay my [G] burden down
Could [C] be tomorrow, [G] God has not told me
[D] And now I [G] will love
With [C] all the heart, soul, and [G] strength within _ [D] me
_ [G] As a mother, _ [B] and a lover
[C] And a sister, [G] and a daughter
And then one day, [B] over Jordan
_ [C] I'll see angels, hear [G] trumpets _ [D] sound
When [G] I lay my [D] [G] burden down
[C] When [G] I lay my burden down _ _ _ _ _
