[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Stranger, weary traveler, here's some water
Brother, sister, rest your shoulders
Been a long night, but it's almost over
[Chorus]
His yoke is easy
His burden is light
Lay down your troubles
To the Giver of Life
Oh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Sailor, there's a lighthouse in the distance
Storm's a blowin', seas a ragin'
But you can make it, sail on, my friend
Sail on, sail on
[Chorus]
His yoke is easy
His burden is light
Lay down your troubles
To the Giver of Life (Oh, yeah)
Oh, His yoke is easy
His burden is light
Lay down your troubles
To the Giver of Lifе
[Bridge]
Open your heart up
Open your mind up
Opеn your spirit
Oh, can you hear it?
Open your soul
To the love of God
[Interlude]
Play on
The music played on
Ooh
Transform my mind by the renewing of Your Spirit, God, yeah
I lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
Every burden on my heart
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
Every burden on my mind, yeah
I lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
All my anxieties, yeah
I lay it down, lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
[Chorus]
His yoke is easy (Woo)
His burden is light (My spirit is light in Your presence, God)
Lay down your troubles
Oh, to the Giver of Life (He's the Giver of Life, Giver of Life, yeah)
His yoke is easy
Oh, His burden is light (I can feel Him working in my life, and in my mind, and in my mind, yeah)
Lay down your troubles (All my troubles, here's my troubles, God, every trouble, Lord)
To the Giver of Life
To the Giver of Life
