Hang it up like a coat Tear it up like a note Let the pieces fall to the ground Like falling snow Go for a walk outside Watch as the red bird flies He needs lifting And we need lifting, too
If we're gonna pray about it There's no use in worrying If we're gonna worry about it Why are we praying Just leave it in the hands of the Father Leave it in the hands of the Healer Leave it in the hands of Jesus And walk away Walk away
Take all your doubt and fear Whisper it in His ear Drop it in the mailbox Raise the flag and let it go
We're laying 'em down to never carry again We're laying 'em down, the burdens, burdens Laying 'em down to never worry again Laying 'em down, let 'em fly on the wind
