Lay It Down ©2003 by Daniel Epp & Danny Van Hofwegen

Footsteps down a hallway
Such lonely sound
Happiness leaves early
And heartache sticks around
Oh my friend it's hard I know
But it's time for letting go

(Chorus 1) Lay it down, lay it down
Don't you cry no more
Lay it down
Give your heartache to the Lord
Lay it down, lay it down
Your joy will be restored
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down

Underneath the surface
Hiding in the dark
Worry is a monster
That creeps into your heart
But it'll be gone without a trace
The day you replace your fear with faith

(Chorus 2) Lay it down, lay it down
Don't you cry no more
Lay it down
Give your worries to the Lord
Lay it down, lay it down
Your joy will be restored
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down

(bridge) Lay it down
Jesus gave his life for you now
Lay it down
You don't have to be alone
Lay it down
So no matter what your problem
You can lay it down at his throne

Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down (repeat twice)
(repeat chorus 1)

Lay it down…….
