not ours to carry

we become tired
losing our joy
the path weary
carrying rocks
stones that are not ours
not ours to carry
the gifts God has given us
the tasks on our path

bearing others’ burdens
their call from God
becoming tired ourselves
carrying stones that are not ours
not ours to carry
when the yoke is light
that which God gives us
to carry in this life
