Lyrics

“Take My Burden Away”
© 2004 Rachel Lynn Sebastian

She said, “Why am I different? Why are they staring?
Why am I dying? And, why do I feel ashamed?”
I said, “The angels in Heaven have chosen someone strong enough,
wise enough and with enough love to stand the pain.”


Chorus
She said, “Take my burden away…take it away…”
And I said, “Ok…ok, I’ll take it away.”

She said, “I want to sing in the rain like Gene Kelly,
I want to dance and to feel that glorious feeling inside me.
I said, “You can dance with your heart…and sing with your soul…
I see it within you; you just have to let that burden go

Chorus


Bridge
This burden you bear is not in vain.
You’ve lifted away another’s pain.
And, every day I pray the same
That God will let me…take your burden away.
