Too Heavy!

“Too heavy Lord,” we cry aloud,
Filled with fear and despair.
“Lord, I just can’t stand it;
It’s more than I can bear.

The weight of the pain is out of control,
The load is breaking my heart.
Dear Lord, I need some comfort,
My world is falling apart.

Help me, Lord – too heavy,”
With all your heart you cry.
And then amazed, you turn around
And guess who’s standing by?

Your God has sent the Comforter
To walk that weary road.
And suddenly, He reaches down,
And lifts from you that load.

Yes, the crisis and maybe the pain
May continue on.
But the weight that was crushing the life from you
Suddenly is gone.

Oh, beloved, trust Him,
His promises are true.
When you cry out, “Too heavy,”
Your God will comfort you.
