My Burdens Rolled Away

Verse 1

I remember when my burdens rolled away; I had carried them for years, night and day. When I sought the blessèd Lord, And I took Him at His word, Then at once all my burdens rolled away.

Chorus

Rolled away, rolled away, I am happy since my burdens rolled away. Rolled away, rolled away, I am happy since my burdens rolled away.

Verse 2

I remember when my burdens rolled away; That I feared would never leave, night or day. Jesus showed to me the loss, So I left them at the cross; I was glad when my burdens rolled away.

Verse 3

I remember when my burdens rolled away, That had hindered me for years, night and day. As I sought the throne of grace, Just a glimpse of Jesus’ face, And I knew that my burdens could not stay.

Verse 4

I am singing since my burdens rolled away; There’s a song within my heart night and day. I am living for my King, And with joy I shout and sing: Hallelujah, all my burdens rolled away!
