carry me

pain is a forest we all get lost in
and in its branches hope can be so hard to see
and in the darkness we've all got questions
we're all just trying to make sense out of suffering

but You say i am blessed because of this
so i'll choose to believe
as i carry this cross
You'll carry me

help me believe it

fear is a current we all get caught in
and in its motion faith can be so hard to find
and we all falter cause we're all broken
we're all just trying to turn the shadows into light

but You get glory in the midst of this
and You're walking with me
and You say i am blessed because of this
so i'll choose to believe
as i carry this cross
You'll carry me

and i know Your promises are faithful
and God i've seen Your goodness in my life
and oh i've found Your mercy is a river
Your love is an ocean wide

You say i am blessed because of this

and You get glory in this midst of this
and You're walking with me
and You say i am blessed because of this
so i'll choose to believe
as i carry this cross
you'll carry me

Your love is an ocean wide
