Lyrics

Verse 1:
There is something I've carried through the years
That only weighs me down
And brings me bitter tears
And I wonder why I keep it in my heart
Cause all it's doing now 
Is tearing me apart
 
Chorus:
And I need to lay it down
I can't seem to let it go
But deep inside I know
That I need to lay it down
And it's something I can never do alone
Help me lay it down
 
Verse 2:
If I could just go back and live my life again
Knowing what I know
I'd try to change the end
But I still believe that you must have a plan
A purpose for my life
And God I trust your hand
 
Chorus:
So I need to lay it down
I can't seem to let it go
But deep inside I know
That I need to lay it down
And it's something I can never do alone
Help me lay it down
 
Bridge:
The dreams that still refuse to die
The well of tears the won't run dry
Resentment fear and shame within my heart
Lord I give it all to you
To do what no one else can do
Set me free to make a brand new start
 
Chorus:
Cause I need to lay it down
It's time to let it go
Deep inside I know
That I need to lay it down
And it's something I don't have to do alone
Help me lay it down
Every day I lay it down
(God grant me the serenity)
Every day I lay it down 
(To accept the things I cannot change)
Every day I lay it down 
(Courage to change the things I can)
Every day I lay it down 
(And the wisdom to know the difference)
