The Burden of Freedom |
| I stand on the stairway my back to the dungeon |
| The doorway to freedom so close to my hand |
| While voices behind me still bitterly damn me For seeking salvation they don’t understand |
| Lord help me to shoulder the burden of freedom |
| And give me the courage to be what I can |
| And when I am wounded by those who condemn me Lord help me forgive them they don’t understand |
| Their lonely frustration descending the laughter |
| Erases the footprints I leave in the sand |
| Now I’m free to travel where no one can follow |
| In search of the kingdom they don’t understand |
| Lord help me to shoulder the burden of freedom |
| And give me the courage to be what I can |
| And when I have wounded by those who condemned me Lord help me forgive them they don’t understand |
