lyrics

What is the cross you carry?
What is the cross you bear?
Is it a cross that’s too heavy
Does it bring you to tears?
What is the pain you suffer?
What is the pain you feel?
Is it a pain that is tougher?
Will it ever be healed?

Well Christ had a cross
Just like you do
And Christ understands what you’re going through.

Chorus
And He chose to go on
Beneath the weight of the cross
Suffering the pain no matter the cost
He kept pressing on
Through His tears and His pain
He would not give up for there was so much to gain.
Step after step He struggled to take
For this is the path that He chose for our sake.
He held up His cross though He was ready to drop
He finished His course though He was tempted to stop.
Christ went on beneath the weight of the cross.
Christ went on beneath the weight of His cross.

What is the grief that lingers?
What is the grief so hard?
Is it a past you remember?
Does it grip at your heart?
What dreams have been shattered?
What trials have come your way?
Is it a life that’s been battered
By the storms and pouring rain?

Well Christ had a cross
Just like you do
And Christ understands what you’re going through.

Chorus

The weight of the cross
He carried it for you
The weight of the cross
He died on it, too
The weight of the cross could not hold Him in the grave
He rose victoriously so that we could be saved!

Chorus
Chorus
And He chose to go on
Beneath the weight of the cross
Suffering the pain no matter the cost
He kept pressing on
Through His tears and His pain
He would not give up for there was so much to gain.
Step after step He struggled to take
For this is the path that He took for our sake.
He held up His cross though He was ready to drop
He finished His course though He was tempted to stop.
Christ went on beneath the weight of His cross.
Christ went on beneath the weight of His cross.
