Lord I have a heavy burden of all I've seen and know
A                Bm     D
And your word is like a fire
            Bm      A
and I cannot let it go
PD-C HORUS
             E             D
And when I'm weary and overwrought
        Bm                A      E
with so many battles left unfought

I see Paul and Silas in the prison yard
             D       A       C#m           E
I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars
             E           C#m      D
And when the Saints   go marching in
          Bm        A
I want to be one of them

A                Bm     D
So I think of those before me
            Bm      A
Who’ve lived a faithful life
PD-C HORUS

with so many battles left unfought
