Burden Down

He had not been there in a while;

you could tell by his heavy load.

But he laid it all down at the foot of the cross,

and on his way he goes.

He’s stepping higher and lighter;

got a smile and a song in his heart.

Reciting to himself the Word of His God;

he believes it, every part.

With full assurance Christ will never depart.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
