Weight of the World

So you're troubled by the weight of the world Sometimes you let it get you down I'll tell you brother what I have heard The Word has come around There's a light shining in the darkness A path outlined in the night My redeemer says "take my yoke For my burden is light" Shake off the chains that weigh you down The prison door is swinging free The price is paid, the sacrifice is made He gave us the key So if you're troubled by the weight of the world Come lay your burden down Rest in the peace of His endless love And your joy will be found So if you need Him, and oh you need Him You'll find the glory of the Word at the cross Stop, all the hurry and all the worry And count as gain what's loss 'Cause I've got hope, I'll never be defeated He stands with me, with God He is seated The Christ, the Lamb, the Son of I Am His love is for me So shake off the chains that weigh you down The prison door is swinging free The price is paid, the sacrifice is made He gave us the key So if you troubled by the weight of the world Come lay your burden down Rest in the peace of His endless love And your joy will be found
