In this fast moving word that we're living when my mind feels heavy from the load

As the problems of life overtake us darling you always lighten the load

Thank you for love that's much greater and much stronger than the problems we know

And thank you for loving your man that walks a hard road

Darling thank you for lightening the load



When my shoulder's bent to hard labor and I've worked till my back is bowed

Then your loving hands reach to hold me darling you always lighten the load

Thank you for love...

Darling thank you for lightening the load
