Burdens
As burdens go I have quite a horde
more than I care to count
And if it means a higher reward
I’ll settle for this amount
And if it’s not how many you find
but burden’s total weight
I hope I’ve carried in this lifetime
enough to open heaven’s gate
To those here and gone, I tried my best
with all I had and know
Just reward my soul a place to rest
away from this world’s woe
I pray in this life I’ve paid the cost
enough for God’s guarantee
being rejoined with those I’ve lost
Lords is heaven enough for me
