When my burdens grow heavy (heavy, heavy)
And it seems there’s no way
I kneel by my bedside
And the Lord’s prayer I’ll pray
God lifts me right up (up, up)
And he makes to stand
Because when I’m troubled
I wait for the touch of God’s hand
I once had a vision (vision, vision)
As I knelt to pray
I saw Jesus coming
And the world pass away
And then I was troubled (troubled, troubled)
But he makes me to stand
Because when I’m troubled
I wait for the touch of God’s hand
Thank God for a mother (mother, mother)
Who’s taught me to pray
So I can be ready
On the great judgment day
When problems arise (arise, arise)
That I don’t understand
I kneel down and wait – yes I’ll wait
I’ll wait for the touch of God’s hand
