Chorus:
Leave it there, leave it there,
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
If you trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out.
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

If your body suffers pain and your health you can’t regain,
And your soul is almost sinking in despair,
Jesus knows the pain you feel, He can save and He can heal;
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

When your enemies assail and your heart begins to fail,
Don’t forget that God in Heaven answers prayer;
He will make a way for you and will lead you safely through.
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

When your youthful days are gone and old age is stealing on,
And your body bends beneath the weight of care;
He will never leave you then, He’ll go with you to the end.
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

Chorus:
Leave it there, leave it there,
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
If you trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out.
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

Sis. Barb,

I grew up hearing my dear mother going about her daily

duties as the mother of eleven, singing "Leave It There",

Take your burdens to the Lord and leave it there. If you

trust and never doubt, God will surely bring you out, take

your burdens to the Lord and leave it there. As long as she

was on this earth, I believe she did just that. Now as a

mother of six adult children and their spouses, and the

grandmother of 19, the Lord willing, come spring, will be 20.

There is no way I could physically, mentally or emotionally

carry burdens for that many. But I can spiritually carry them

all in prayer, plus some, if I take them and give them daily to

His care. Those old songs had messages and stories of over-

coming and how to overcome. By the Blood of the Lamb and

by the word of our testimony. Those that went before us left

clues and experiences that build faith, along with the Word of

God, that we can make it! I know! I heard their songs, saw

their lives and their faith lived out. May all who come behind

us find us faithful!

Blessings,
