My Prayer
My burdens keep me humble And they teach me to pray. If I murmur, if I grumble Forgive the words I say.
Give me strength to just carry My load day to day. Just don’t take my burden Or my cross away.
With the cross on my shoulder My feet cannot stray. For my cross leads me onward To my home so far away.
And I’ll never question The price I must pay. But don’t take my burden Or my cross away.
For I would grow careless And idle I fear. My eyes would be dry I’d never shed a tear.
Lest I forget That I need You today. Don’t take my burdens Or my cross away.

My Burdens
Lord, I’m so discouraged I don’t know what to do I have so many burdens And I gave them all to you.
But you didn’t take them Jesus Will you tell me why that’s so? The answer’s simply little one Because you won’t let go.
