    Verse 1
    Lord 
    have 
    a heavy 

    burden 
    of all 
    I've 
    seen 
    and 
    know 

    It's 
    more 
    than I 
    can 
    handle 

    But your 
    word 
    is 
    burning 
    like 

    fire 
    shut 
    up 
    in my 
    bones 

    And 
    cannot 
    let 
    it 
    go 

    Verse 2
    And 
    when 
    I'm 
    weary 
    and 
    over
    wrought 

    With 
    so 
    many 
    battles 
    left 
    unfought 

    Verse 3
    think 
    of 
    Paul 
    and 
    Silas 
    in 
    the 
    prison 
    yard 

    hear 
    their 
    song 
    of 
    freedom 

    rising 
    to 
    the stars 

    And 
    when 
    the 
    Saints 
    go 
    march
    ing 
    in 

    want 
    to 
    be 
    one 
    of 
    them 

    Verse 4
    Lord 
    it's 
    all 
    that 
    I can't 
    carry 

    and 
    cannot 
    leave 
    behind 

    It 
    often 
    over
    whelms 
    me 

    But 
    when 
    think 
    of 
    all 
    who've 
    gone 

    before 
    and 
    lived 
    the faithful 
    life 

    Their 
    courage 
    com
    pels 
    me 

    And 
    when 
    I'm 
    weary 
    and 
    over
    wrought 

    With 
    so 
    many 
    battles 
    left 
    unfought 

    Verse 5
    think 
    of 
    Paul

    the 
    prison 
    yard 

    hear 
    their 
    song 
    of 
    freedom 
    rising 
    to 
    the stars 

    Verse 6
    see 
    the 
    shepherd 
    Moses 

    in 
    the 
    Pharaohs 
    court 

    hear 
    his 
    call 
    for 
    freedom 
    for 

    the 
    people 
    of 
    the 
    Lord 

    Verse 7
    And 
    when 
    the 
    Saints 
    go

    ing 
    in 

    want 
    to

    one 
    of 
    them 

    Verse 8
    I see 
    the 
    long 
    quiet 
    walk 
    along 

    the 
    Underground 
    Rail
    road 

    I see

    awaken
    ing

    re
    turning 

    with 
    no

    of 
    fear

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
