I Hold This Cross

I hold this cross LORD I cannot thank you for all that you've done My day was dark and you brought out the sun. With all my worries and my tears - you took away all my fears. I held the cross from my chain and asked for blessings in your name. When life becomes like a tornado tossing everything around You held me firm on the ground. I hold this cross in my hand cause my life you understand This cross is your symbol of life, faith, love and hope And this shows us how to cope. Such a small little cross which holds billions of hearts And with the twelve Apostles it did start. A cross so small above my heart - I kiss it daily for my day to start. From the Sacred Heart of Jesus that has endured the ravages of time To make this gift " yours and mine ". © L. RAMS 020917
