[Chorus]
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end

[Verse 1]
Well, Christ is my burden bearer
He's my only friend
‘Til the end of my sorrow
He tells me to lean on Him

[Chorus]
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end

[Verse 2]
God’s my strong protection
He's my bosom friend
Trouble all around me
I know who will take me in

[Chorus]
Oh, trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
(Will have an end)
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Oh, sorrow will have an end
Oh, sorrow will have an end
[Verse 3]
Proved a friend to David
And hid him in the cage
The same God that David served
Will give me a rest someday

[Chorus]
Oh, trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end

[Verse 4]
My burden may be heavy
My enemies crush me down
Someday I'll rest with Jesus and wear a starry crown

[Chorus]
Oh, trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end

[Verse 5]
I'll take this yoke upon me and live a Christian life
Take Jesus for my Savior, my burden will be light
[Chorus]
Uh, uh
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
(Will have an end)
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end

[Verse 6]
My burden may be heavy
My enemies crush me down
Someday I'll rest with Jesus and wear a starry crown

[Chorus]
Oh, trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Trouble soon be over
Sorrow will have an end
Oh, sorrow will have an end
Oh, sorrow will have an end
Oh, sorrow will have an end
