Cross to Bear Lyrics

I believed twisted lies

Fruit looked good to my eyes

So I grabbed it and took a bite

I just couldn't realize

You had my good in mind

It was enough to be my own boss

Now there's darkness inside,

Heavy burden of pride

And from You, my face I hide

Seeking division and strife

My tongue quick to chastise

But You carried it all to the cross

I, I put You there

All the shame and despair

Of my guilty heart

Whipped You, weighted You down

I, I put You there

You felt every nail

And every thorn

Piercing in from Your crown

I alone, I am your cross to bear

My soul fiercely unclean

Overwhelmed by feeling

Not letting myself be seen

I am ungrateful, judging

Bitter, hopeless and mean

Jesus, You carry me to the cross

I, I put You there

All the shame and despair

Of my guilty heart

Whipped You, weighted You down

I, I put You there

You felt every nail

And every thorn

Piercing in from Your crown

Oh I alone, I am Your cross to bear

I alone, I am your cross to bear

It is finished

You took Your last breath

You hung up there to bear me wholly

You chose this cross

Yes, You bore this cross

For You so love me

It is finished

You took Your last breath

You hung up there to bear me wholly

You chose this cross

Yes, You bore this cross

For You so love me
