Story Behind The Song
I had a picture in mind of old crowns laid at the foot of the cross, the accompanying troubles fully, emotionally, and thankfully surrendered to the master.
Song Description
The seeking and the faithful have found solace at the cross, the lost remain lost, burdened by earthly loads they cannot solve by themselves. Jesus knows how we wear our problems like gold chains, knows all there is of us and asks us to lay our burdens at the cross. After all, three days in the grave and He rose again! That is the rock to stand on. Blended onto sweet layers of strings it is a featherbed of sound, leaves no doubt when someone says "leave it- There Among The Crowns".

Lyrics
There Among the Crowns w/m Penny Gottsche bp 100 3:22
V1- Hold on to trouble , worry on your face like a
prized possession in an honor place
chained to this world of sin
V2- Pretend all you want to, Jesus knows your heart
your joy and pain the good and the dark
how you cry , you just can't win
Channel- Lay your burden down There Among the Crowns
lay your burden down There Among the Crowns
lay your burden do-own...
Chorus- There Among the Crowns at the foot of the cross
the seeking and the faithful count not among the lost
in the light of that Holy Place surrender
lay your burden down There Among the Crowns
There Among the Crowns
V3- Nothing is lost, everything is gained with the
blood of Christ running thru your veins,
and you shout it from the mountain
V4- Three days in the grave, Jesus rose up,
get your foot on that rock and your mind made up and
praise, praise Jesus name
Channel- Lay your burden down There Among the Crowns,
lay your burden down There Among the Crowns,
lay your burden do-own....
Chorus- There Among the Crowns at the foot of the cross,
the seeking and the faithful count not among the lost.
In the light of that Holy Place surrender,
lay your burden do-own ...
Chorus- There Among the Crowns at the foot of the cross,
the seeking and the faithful , count not among the lost.
In the light of that Holy Place surrender
lay your burden down There Among The Crowns
There Among the Crowns
Tag- There Among the Crowns
