Trouble Will Soon Be Over in Blind Willie Johnson

Trouble will soon be over, sorrow will have an end
Trouble will soon be over, sorrow will have an end

Christ is my burden bearer;
He's my only friend.
I tell him all my sorrows,
He tells me to lean on him.

God is my strong protector;
He's my bosom friend.
If trouble arise all around me,
I know who'll take me in.

He proved a friend to David;
He hid him in a cave.
The same Go that David served
Will give me rest someday.

Though my burden may be heavy,
It may even crush me down;
Some day I'll rest with Jesus
and wear a starry crown.

I'll take this yoke upon me,
And live a Christian life;
I'll take Jesus for my saviour,
My burden will be light.

Trouble will soon be over, sorrow will have an end
Trouble will soon be over, sorrow will have an end
