[Chorus]
Leave it there, oh leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If you trust and never doubt
He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Verse 1]
If the world from you withhold of its silver and its gold
And you have to get along with meager fare
Just remember in his word how he fed those little birds
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Verse 2]
If your body suffers pain and your health you can't regain
And your soul is almost sinking in despair
Oh he knew the pain you feel
He can save and he can heal
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Verse 3]
If your enemies a**ail and your heart begins to fail
Don't forget that God in Heaven answers prayer
He will make a way for you and will guide you safely through
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If your youthful days are gone and old age is stealing on
And your body sinks beneath the weight of care
Oh he'll never leave you then
He'll go with you to the end
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Chorus]
Leave it there, oh leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If you trust and never doubt
He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Verse 4]
Now, if you're mother leaves you here
Grief and sorrow you must bear
And you feel that all the friends you have are gone
Oh whenever you are alone, he will take you in his arms
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
[Chorus]
Leave it there, oh leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If you trust and never doubt
He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
Leave it there, oh leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If you trust and never doubt
He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
Leave it there, oh leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
If you trust and never doubt
He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
