My Cross to Bear

Carrying my Cross
It often seems so heavy
Don’t want to let go

Not my Cross to bear?

Worries weigh me down
When life seems so heavy then,
Why don’t I let go?

He says I shall not worry

My burden is light
Jesus carried the world’s weight
How can I complain

Placed my yoke on him….
