THE OAK RIDGE BOYS
"When I Lay My Burdens Down"

When I lay my burdens down some day
Receive a crown that will never fade away
Tears are wiped from 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.
