Bear Thy Cross
I'll bear thy cross
if only to bear thy sin;
you won't suffer
and I probably won't live.
I'll bear they cross,
thy condemnation,
with thy own sin,
to suffer flesh's temptation.
To bear this crown;
the sin of flesh,
to be like man,
is sin so fresh.
To bear thy crown
as thy queen
means nothing to you
my dark, sinful king.
I'll bear thy cross
to bear thy crown,
and suffer in sin
as you take me down.
