Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Glory, glory, hallelujah,
since I laid my burden down.

Verse 2:
Friends don't treat me like they used to
since I laid my burden down.

Verse 3:
I feel better, so much better
since I laid my burden down.

Verse 4:
Feel like shouting, "hallelujah",
since I laid my burden down.

Verse 5:
I am climbing Jacob's ladder
since I laid my burden down.

Verse 6:
Every round goes higher and higher
since I laid my burden down.
