You've been running around in circles trying to find your way Seems like the world is on your shoulders you are falling With a mind full of complications you have yet to face And in the midst of all this chaos Your love is calling There you are crying silent tears, oh held as a prisoner of your fears inside Round and round we go where's it gonna stop who knows? who understands, your distress? You don't have to live a life of hopelessness If you lay your troubles down You'll find He's very easy There's a new joy to be found, a life of liberty yeah And when tears fill your eyes, let his gladness be your pillow There are brighter days and peaceful nights and it all begins when you lay your troubles down. Go 'head and say "Oh what a shame, troubles never seem to cease." But instead of going crazy you can have perfect peace. Desperately searching for one sign, look deep inside and you will find He is waiting there Round and round we go where you gonna stop? God knows and understands, where you are He has a perfect love for your fainting heart If you lay your troubles down You'll find He's very easy there a new joy to be found A life of liberty And when tears fill your eyes let His gladness be your pillow there are brighter days and peaceful nights and they all begin when you may your troubles down Gather up all of your sad days wave them all goodbye Everyone of those heartaches will leave forever and ever hey hey Give Him all of your sorrows, He will make you glad Just cast your cares on Him, He'll bring your dark days to an end and the sun will shine again And you know that you can make it cause you laid your troubles down Lay your troubles down, c'mon and lay your trouble down (repeat 5xs)
