v1:
I come to lay my burden down,
I’ve come now to believe.
I’ve come to trust, surrender now,
Believe, and to receive.
REFRAIN 1:
When I find my dreams are blown away,
When my pot of gold has gone to clay,
O Lord, I still believe.
When the storm puts raindrops in my eyes,
When good health and harvest pass me by,
O Lord, I still receive.
v2:
Whatever comes, in God I trust,
Come dark or holy place,
It’s then that I surrender to
The One who took my place.
REFRAIN 1:
When I find my dreams are blown away,
When my pot of gold has gone to clay,
O Lord, I still believe.
When the storm puts raindrops in my eyes,
When good health and harvest pass me by,
O Lord, I still receive.
REFRAIN 2:
When your Word is singing in my ears,
And my heart has overcome all fears,
O Lord, I will believe.
When the world we know passes away,
And we stand before you on that day,
O Lord, we will receive.
v1:
I come to lay my burden down,
I’ve come now to believe.
I’ve come / to trust, surrender now,
Believe, and to receive.
Receive
