Bring those heavy burdens
And lay them at my feet
And sit yourself down here
On my mercy seat
And let your weary soul
Come and lean on me
You can stay here forever
I so love your company
You were never meant to be alone
Or try to make it in this world all on your own
For you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
For you
Every promise I will see it through
I will lay it all down
My life and my crown
I give it all up
For you
I understand rejection
To be tainted with lies
Rarely feeling accepted
Often despised
The ones that we love
Seem to hurt us more than others
Our sisters our brothers
Our fathers our mothers
But you were never meant to be alone
Or try to make it in this world all on your own
For you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
For you
Every promise I will see it through
I will lay it all down
My life and my crown
I give it all up
For you
Well before the breaking of the dawn
I had my eye on you
Waiting for the day that you were born
So I could spend the rest of my days
With you
But you were never meant to be alone
Or try to make it in this world all on your own
For you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
For you
Every promise I will see it through
I will lay it all down
My life and my crown
I give it all up
For you
