Leave it there, oh leave it there Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there If you will trust Him and never doubt, He will surely bring you out Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there Now if the world from you withhold of its silver and its gold And you'll have to get along with meagers fare Just remember in God's words, how he fed those little birds Take your burden to the Lord, leave it there Now if your body suffers pain and your health you can't regain And your soul is almost sinking in despair Jesus knew the pain you feel, He can save and He can heal Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there Oh leave it there, oh leave it there Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there If you'll trust Him and never doubt, He will surely bring you out Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there If your enemy assails and your heart begin to fail Don't you forget that God in Heaven will answer prayer He will make a way for you, He will guide you safely through Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there Now if your youthful days are gone, and old age is stealing on And your body sinks beneath the weight of care Jesus will never leave you then, He'll go with you to the end Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there Leave it there, oh leave it there Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there If you trust Him, never doubt, He will surely bring you out Take your burden to the Lord, leave it there Now if your mother leaves you here, grief and sorrow you must bear And you feel that all the friend you have is gone But whenever you feel alone, Jesus will take you in His arms Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there Oh leave it there, oh leave it there Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there If you trust Him, never doubt, He will surely bring you out Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there
