Burden

People say God is dead
But how can they think that
If I show them the devil

You will suffer greatly
but through you many will come to see
that the realm of the spirit is real

I feel this pain, I feel it burn in my heart
I know that this is a test
To make me stronger
You tell me this is my cross
That I bear for the weak
I'll give you all that I am, You're my blood
You're my strength
Now learn, and live through this
and let it burn

Don't let this burden flee from me
till the lesson is complete
Because the pain is teaching me
Who I need to be

The clarity is getting stronger
My heart is teaching me
what my eyes can't see
You wrote your name on my heart
I am the sparrow
I bear this pain in your name
It makes me stronger
Now learn and live through this
And let it burn

Don't let this burden flee from me
till the lesson is complete
Because the pain is teaching me
Who I need to be

Why did the demons not leave me tonight
You can come with me in peace free of your bodily form or you can choose to continue this
the choice is yours
I choose to stay

Don't let this burden flee from me
till the lesson is complete
Because the pain is teaching me
Who I need to be
About the man I want to be
For all the ones who count on me
Because the pain is teaching me
Who I need to be
