we carry this burden – v2

We carry this burden
the pain so familiar
things we won’t let go of
that we won’t give to God -
Nothing He has given
(She, if you prefer),
our Creator doesn’t work that way;
God is good, all the time,
wanting the best for us
for us to come to Him
to sit in His loving arms
to rest at His feet.
We carry this burden
the weight of the world
not giving anything over
into the hands of our Lord.
