I can’t seem to hold the weight of me,
All of my pain has taken me to my knees.
All the struggles crumble my heart under pressure,
And I feel like everyone is out to get me.
I walk so carefully on the sidelines,
I speak so quietly so you won’t hear my hurts.
You always take my turbulence,
You always wake me from my deep sleep,
You let me love for free,
And take away
the condemnation.
So I will take up my cross,
And I will lose my life for you,
So, you can save my life from me.
I can’t seem to imagine the tears that fell from your face,
while I struggle to get my sinful head on straight.
These human hands can’t heal these wounds,
But you heal me even when I am wrong.
And I feel like I have forever failed you,
And I run away scared of my pain.
I bury my shame from everyone I knew.
But I never could have kept that from you.
You always shake the fear from my bones,
You always know how to comfort me.
You let this joy run free in me.
And you guide me along the way.
So I will take up my cross,
And I will lose my life for you,
So you can save my life from me.
