Take Your Burdens (To the Lord)

Surrounded by four walls
Can't seem to find my way out
Trapped in by the pressures of life
Growing weary, troubled in my mind

I walked upon the church steps
Entered through the door
I heard the preacher preaching
The Word of God was going forth
Broken in my spirit
I did listen with faith
And these are the words
That I heard the preacher say

Take your burdens to the Lord
Everything will be all right
For His yoke is easy
And His burdens are so light
Oh, so light

Jesus tore down those walls
He's your answer, He's your way out
My relief for all life's pressures
Peace of mind, blessed assurance

I never shall forget that day
I entered through the door
The preacher was preaching
The Word of God was going forth
Broken in my spirit
I did listen with faith
These are the words
These are the words
I heard the preacher say

Take your burdens to the Lord
(Take it to Jesus)
Everything will be all right
(It will be all right)
For His yoke is easy
And His burdens are so light

Take your burdens to the Lord
(Take it all to Jesus)
Everything will be all right
(I know it's gonna be all right)
For His yoke is easy
And His burdens are so light

All your problems
All your troubles, afflictions
Jesus will fix it
For you
I know that He cares for you

It's so good to know
In the time of desperation
He's your present help
In any situation
For you
I know that He cares for you
