"Lay My Burden Down" lyrics

And I will walk down to the water
To lay my burden down
And for one moment in my life
I will be free

And I will rest there at the water
For soon I must go on
But for one moment in my life
I will be free

And I will lay my burden down
For my faith is at its end
I can no longer face, no
The colors of my world, no, no
And I will lay my burden down
To be freedom's child again
I can no longer face, no
The colors of my world

From the darkness of the water
To my place in the sun
Is but the last step on my journey
To be free

And the morning sun will find me
A peaceful girl at last
For in one moment of my life
I will be free, oh, yes, I will

And I will lay my burden down
For my faith is at its end
I can no longer face, no
The colors of my world, oh, no, no
And I will lay my burden down
To be freedom's child again
I can no longer face
All the colors of my world
