Lyrics

I was a burden I was a burden I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me I was a burden To my mother And to my father My sister and brother I was on dope Whiskey and wine I'd given up hope Losing my mind I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me Then I heard Him say Forgive yourself It's what you should do Forgive yourself Like I forgive you Open your eyes It'll be alright When you're standing in the light I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me Now if you are weary And if you're hurting Come on and go with me Cause one thing's for certain He'll lift you up And set you free He'll do for you What He's done for me I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me And I heard Him say Forgive yourself That's what you should do Forgive yourself The way I forgive you Open your eyes It'll be alright When you're standing in the light I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me I was a burden Till the Lord laid His hands on me
