#### DON'T TAKE MY BURDENS OR MY CROSS AWAY

I

MY BURDENS KEEP ME HUMBLE AND TEACH ME TO PRAY.
IF I MURMUR OR CRUMBLE FORGIVE THE WORDS I SAY.
BUT DON'T TAKE MY BURDEN OR MY CROSS AWAY.

CHORUS

HELP ME LORD TO CARRY MY CROSS DAY BY DAY.
FOR I WOULD GROW CARELESS AND IDLE I FEAR.
MY EYES WOULD BE DRY AND I WOULD NEVER SHED A TEAR.
LEST I FORGET I NEED YOU EACH DAY.
DON'T TAKE MY BURDENS OR MY CROSS AWAY.

II

WITH A CROSS ON MY SHOULDER MY FEET
CANNOT STRAY FOR THE CHRIST LEADS
ME UPWARD TO MY HOME FAR AWAY.
AND I WILL NOT QUESTION THE PRICE I MUST PAY.
JUST DON'T TAKE MY BURDENS OR MY CROSS AWAY.
