Off My Tired Shoulders

Sometimes I have an amazing thought

Of you stepping in when my sins were bought

The day I finally got down on my knees

And then offered up my humble pleas

It was like right there and right then

I could feel that I'd been born again

Back out of the water I saw you

And everything felt like it was new

The backpack that was filled with boulders

Instantly came off my tired shoulders

And to my sweet and joyous surprise

My Savior stood right before my eyes

There's no amount of praise I could sing

For the one with healing in each wing

Pulled me out of that place I was in

And saved me from the depths of sin

The backpack that was filled with boulders

Instantly came off my tired shoulders

And to my sweet and joyous surprise

My Savior stood right before my eyes

So I'll do all I can from morning till night

To help everyone I know and shine your light

The backpack that was filled with boulders

Instantly came off my tired shoulders

And to my sweet and joyous surprise

My Savior stood right before my eyes
