"For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11:30
-
Lord, since You appeared
And got Yourself into my heart
It's been so easy
To live a new life.
Poor wrestling man,
I tried so hard to change myself.
Now it's so easy, O Lord,
You carry me along.
-
Heart once full of hate -
I strove so many times to care.
But now it's easy:
You love all the time!
Why bother to stir up feelings!
I've found Love Himself!
You make it easy, O Lord,
You carry me along.
    No struggling, long as I'm bubbling;
    Your life is leveling
       all that's been troubling;
    No longer grumbling
       for all my fumbling -
    You're in control.
    My anxious trembling
       slowly is dwindling,
    Though all my stumbling
       seems to be doubling;
    Your Word is settling -
       I'll do no meddling
    In Your affairs!
       O Father above
       You put Your Son into my heart
       And made it easy, O God,
       He carries me along.
-
Had something to say -
I'd watch my words drone on and on.
Now something's happened -
You keep cutting in.
Wild ravaging thoughts,
But You're devouring every one -
Surprise! It's easy, O Lord,
You're carrying me along.
-
Strong, contending will -
I've been resisting all the way,
Yet it's amazing -
I keep giving in.
Such marvelous light,
I've found there's no demand at all!
While I do nothing, O Lord,
Just carry me along.
