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
