When I Lay My Burden Down

from Meet Me In The Middle by Erin Harpe

/

about

Erin’s take on a traditional gospel spiritual, inspired by piedmont blues master Mississippi John Hurt.

lyrics

Glory glory, hallelujah, since I laid my burden down
Glory glory, hallelujah, since I laid my burden down

No more sickness, no more sorrow, since I laid my burden down
No more sickness, no more sorrow, since I laid my burden down

Burden down lord, burden down lord, since I laid my burden down
Burden down lord, burden down lord, since I laid my burden down

I'm gonna shake hands, with the angels, when I lay my burden down
I'm gonna shake hands, with the angels, when I lay my burden down

I’m going home to, live with Jesus, when I lay my burden down
I’m going home to, live with Jesus, since I laid my burden down

Glory glory, hallelujah, when I lay my burden down
Glory glory, hallelujah, when I lay my burden down
When I lay, my burden down
