Sweet Sound

I'm laying down all my burdens
 I'm burying my pain in the ground
 I'm surrendering all to the sweet, sweet sound
 I'm forgetting my pain and my sorrows
 And wearing my heart out on my sleeve
 All I need is this love in my heart to believe
 And that heaven is not in the skies waiting
 And if I spend my time hating, I'll be living in hell
 So I've been praying, I've been praying for something
 To show my heart the one thing that by now I should know well
 'Cause all these songs I've been given
 But they've shown me that living is not so hard after all
 They fill me up with light, tell me I'm wrong when I think I'm right
 And pick me up every time I fall
 To all my days I will sing, give praise
 It's what I was put here for
 I've made my choice, I've got my voice
 And I don't need nothing more, oh, no-no, no-no
 Because patience is a virtue, I've been hearing
 But if I wait for the smoke to be clearing, I might waste my days away
 Because tomorrow is just yesterday a little bit later
 And I know it'll be greater if I live for today
 'Cause oh Lord, I've been running, I've been running and hiding
 Hiding from the truth
 But as I lay me down, I hear the sweet, sweet sound
 And I don't need no more proof
 'Cause I don't know what this world has got in store
 But if it's an open door, I'm gonna walk through
 And I don't know why we keep the best inside
 But if I find out, and I'll come and find your way, oh, yeah, oh
 So all my days I will sing, give praises
 Is what I was put here for
 I've made my choice, I've got my voice
 And I don't need nothing more, oh, no-no, no-no, no
 I'm ready Lord, I'm not waiting no more
 No negative, positive for sure
 Oh Lord, I said, "My troubles are washed away"
 I'm ready Lord, I'm not waiting no more
 No negative, positive for sure
 Tell everyone the good love is here to stay
 Oh Lord, I said, "My troubles are washed away"
