Burden of Freedom Lyrics
I stand on the stairway
My back to the dungeon
The doorway to freedomSo close to my hand
And voices behind me
So bitterly damn me
For seeking salvation
They don`t understand
Chorus:
Lord, help me to shoulder
The Burden of Freedom
And give me the courage
To Be What I Can
And When I am Wounded
By those who condemn me
Lord, help me forgive them
They don`t understand
Their lonely frustration
Descending to laughter
Erases the footprints
I leave in the Sand
But I`m free to travel
Where no one can follow
In search of the kingdom
They don`t understand
Chorus:
Lord, help me to shoulder

The Burden of Freedom
And give me the courage
To be what I can
And when I have wounded
The last one who loved me
Lord, help her forgive me
I don`t understand.
