My Burden
Monday, August 02, 2010
We're blessed beyond measure to have a Heavenly Father that we can take our burdens to when they become too much for us to bear. Below is an illustration of a lost and burdened soul finding Christ.
My Burden
I am empty, nothing left
But one thing, a burden to heft
O'er my shoulder, and hidden within
Some shame and sorry, a bundle of sin
I try my best to lay it aside
To cover, conceal, somehow hide
That I am lost, so far astray
How can I possibly find the way?
I need something, something that's real
Something genuine that I can feel
Deep down inside, and in my soul
Something to heal, and to make whole
Then I met someone that told me of You
Of how You can take my soul and undo
All that I've done, and take the Key
Unlock my heart, and refill me
So here am I, before You now
To lay down my burden, to you endow
My everything, my all, my life unto You
From this moment on, forever renewed
