Intro: (Verse) Well I was doublin' over the load on my shoulders Was a weight I carried with me everyday Crossin' miles of frustrations and rivers a ragin' Pickin' up stones I found along the way I staggered and I stumbled down Pathways of trouble I was haulin' those souvenirs of misery And with each step takin' my back was breakin' 'Til found the One who took it all from me Down by the riverside (Down by the riverside) I laid my burdens down, Now I'm travelin' light My spirit lifted high (I found my freedom now) I found my freedom now, And I'm travelin' light (Verse) Through the darkest alleys and loneliest valleys I was draggin' those heavy chains of doubt and fear Then with one word spoken the locks were broken Now He's leading me to places Where there are no tears (Repeat Chorus)
