The Load Is Not Mine

Words Only

1. I felt so weary
2. I felt so sleepy
3. I felt discouraged

1. The life sucked from my bones
2. Had hardly slept for days
3. No one seemed to care

1. I could not go on
2. I wanted to lie there
3. I tried to give up

1. Got tired of pushing alone
2. And sleep my life away
3. And give in to despair

That’s when I realised
That the load is not mine
For Jesus promised
He would bear it for me
So I stopped and rested in Him
And He lifted me again
