Since I Laid My Burden Down / Traditional Spiritual

"Glory, Glory" (also known as "When I Lay My Burden Down", "Since I Laid My Burden Down", "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah Since I Laid My Burden Down" and other titles) is an American spiritual folk song, which has been recorded by many artists in a variety of genres, including folk, country, blues, rock, and gospel. It is typically very melodically similar to another popular gospel song, "Will the Circle Be Unbroken". I`m partial to how Mississippi John Hurt played and sang it. Guitar is tuned to open D tuning (C sharp actual) only the 1st string is tuned same as the 2nd string. Two finger thumb lead fingerpicking, just like on banjo.

Since I've Laid My Burden Down Lyrics

Glory, glory, hallelujah since I've laid my burden down
Glory, glory, hallelujah since I've laid my burden down

No more sickness, no more sorrow since I've laid my burden down
No more sickness, no more sorrow since I've laid my burden down

I'm going home to live with Jesus since I've laid my burden down
I'm going home to live with Jesus since I've laid my burden down

Glory, glory, hallelujah since I've laid my burden down
Glory, glory, hallelujah since I've laid my burden down

All my troubles will be over when I lay my burden down
All my troubles will be over when I lay my burden down

I'm gonna shake glad hand with angels since I've laid my burden down
I'm gonna shake glad hand with angels since I've laid my burden down

Glory, glory, hallelujah since I've laid my burden down
Glory, glory, hallelujah
