Hazakim Heavy Laden lyrics
Heavy Laden
Hazakim
GENRE
VERSE 1: Crawling slowly towards the Carpenter's shop I reached the front door stopped let go of my cross and I instantly dropped / in His eyes I saw compassion as He lifted me up / Son of David I stated I feel like giving this up / my relationship with You is on the rocks / I'm always trying to stand but constantly falling a lot and it won't stop / I don't know how much more of this I am able to take I'm gonna break forever making mistakes / my financial situation is rough I'm clocking at my job daily but I know that I'm not making enough / my supervisor doesn't like me much he's such a jerk trying to find different reasons so he can write me up / I need an additional part-time cause I'm so far behind I've looked through countless classifieds but a decent job is so hard to find / and all this time I sit behind a cubicle knowing inside this isn't what You have for me to do / Jesus I'm only getting older my ministry hasn't blossomed and I'm ready to put this to a closure / while my group is constantly getting looked over so-called Christian artists that don't promote You get the most exposure / and the ones that do are into themselves they're all about making it big or either record sales / they're big-headed I heard their music then met em / tried to show love saw they were rude then said forget em / I'm sick of hearing people tell us keep bringing it fellas but when it's time to help us they consistently fail us / they can keep their encouraging lies I know they take us for a joke that's why my ministry is constantly broke / I'm forced to view Hazakim as a hobby anger towards believers that have brought this is building up inside of me / my car's a jalopy my situation is lousy / my in-laws don't like me this world can go on without me / during my visit I explained more of my struggles and troubles different issues I've been through / pains and sickness as He sat and listened / tears rolling down my cheek barely able to speak I said / Lord I'm just too weak as I laid at His feet / Lord the world flaunts their sin and they sit back and dare You to react / I try to follow Your path and I'm under attack / in all this time You see me in despair it seems You're not there / this cross You gave me is too heavy to bear /
HOOK: This cross is such a heavy load / trying to walk the straight and narrow road / but I'm afraid my faith is growing cold / cause my soul is heavy laden / please hear the cry of my distress / Lord I need a cross that weighs much less / I can't take this stress I long for Your rest / my soul is heavy laden /
VERSE 2: In the blink of an eye Jesus and I were in a humongous shed / I was shocked when He said / put down your cross choose the one you prefer instead / as far as I could see I saw nothing but trees in various shapes and sizes like lower-case T's / seeing so many different crosses I admit was frightful yet I was completely mindful this was the cost to being His disciple / as I walked beside Him I realized the different crosses symbolized different burdens just by the different sizes / deep inside I had to sympathize because before my eyes were the story of many different lives / I was a bit surprised when I saw unfolding before me / testimony of the hurting You kept on with the journey / through the myriads they endured some serious periods / rose over them victorious with each experience / they lived holy I noticed not only were they crying for help / I saw the young and old finish the path by denying themselves / when they died and they were placed in the ground it was then their cross was laid in exchange for a crown / the thought entered in the back of my mind / surely the burdens they carried in their journey wern't half as bad as mine / yeah at the pass of time I knew I had to find a more comfortable cross to suit me finer like the kind that I had left behind / without warning I saw before me tucked in the corner near the front door a cross that appeared to be shorter / I thought that's the kind I see myself bearing it looks very easy to carry and won't have me constantly weary / pointing at it selfishly I said / Jesus I made my decision with Your permission I wish to carry this one / with the look of sadness He said my child I'm fully aware of all you've been through nonetheless you may take it with you / but as I ran to grab the cross in front of me suddenly it started making sense / aw man this is the cross I came in with /
