	Awesome song that truly rocks, starts off with just an acoustic guitar but not for long, because it goes into full fledged rock, not hardcore but definetly not soft, this song is about where we can lay down our burdens, as well as what Christ laid down for us, his life.
	CD: Day of Atonement (releasing late April 2003)   Label: Independent Release by DOA
	Story Behind the Song The first song ever created by Day of Atonement before it was even a band, just a Christian drummer and guitarist getting together creating a song to be played for one special event. Didnt stay that way for long. This song is about Jesus's ministry and death, how he preached of the burdens to be given to him cause he will make up what we will lack. In a crowd, the title comes from where his ministry began, always in a crowd professing his Father and the kingdom. Things changed however and so did the crowd he found himself in by his cruxifiction where he carried the burdens of his cross and our sins. Great song, enjoy. Lyrics "Are you weak, are you heavy laden, Does your soul need rest?" Stood in a crowd, in the middle of a street And this is what he professed "I am strong, I can carry anything That you can give to me Just take a walk with me and you'll begin to see I can set you free" I can take your heavy heart Just give me the burdens that you carry I can take your heavy heart The pain, the shame, and the story Just lay them all before me I can take your heavy heart Walking these familar roads of before They cried for the blood of him In a crowd, in the middle of a street He bore the cross and my sin Nailed him down, they raised him up Hung him there from that tree Perfect blood he shed and this he said "Forgive those who've done this to me"
