My burdens rolled away (Lyrics)

 

1. My burdens rolled away, 

all my burdens rolled away

I remember when my burdens rolled away;

I had carried them for years, night and day.

When I sought the blessèd Lord,

And I took Him at His word,

Then at once, all my burdens rolled away.

Refrain

Rolled away, rolled away,

I am happy since my burdens rolled away.

Rolled away, rolled away,

I am happy since my burdens rolled away.

2. I remember when my burdens rolled away;

That I feared would never leave, night or day.

Jesus showed to me the loss,

So I left them at the cross;

I was glad when my burdens rolled away. 

[Refrain]

3. I remember when my burdens rolled away,

That had hindered me for years, night and day.

As I sought the throne of grace,

Just a glimpse of Jesus’ face,

And I knew that my burdens could not stay. 

[Refrain]

4. I am singing since my burdens rolled away;

There’s a song within my heart night and day.

I am living for my King,

And with joy, I shout and sing:

Praise God, all my burdens rolled away! [Refrain]
