Burdens Are Greater Than Mine

Burdens Are Greater Than Mine - The Hit Crew

Travelin' down a lonely high way

I knew not where the road would end

Not a penny in my pocket

All alone without a friend

In a little country village

I met a man and he was blind

As I helped him cross the high way

Oh Lord I cried his burdens are

Greater than mine

I can see the light of day

I need not feel my way

Yes thy burdens are greater than mine

Met a lad while on my travels

Tryin' hard to play the game

Though his leg was very crippled

And he could not speak his name

Yet he smiled in understandin'

Though life to him had been unkind

And as I watched I cried in sorrow

Oh Lord I see his burdens are

Greater than mine

I can speak my name aloud

Make my way among the crowd

Yes his burdens are greater than mine

Just by chance I passed a graveyard

I saw a young man kneelin' there

In his hand there were some roses

On his lips there was a prayer

On a stone these words were written

Your soul is God's your memory mine

And as I watched I cried in sorrow

Oh Lord I see his burdens are

Greater than mine
