Not Forsaken

For all who are heavy laden 
With burdens too great to bear 
Remember the cross on calvary 
And how Jesus suffered there 

Father please forgive them 
For they know not what they do 
Thru His pain the Saviour prayed 
This prayer for me and you 

And in His darkest hour 
The pain He felt was great 
Forsaken by the ones He loved 
Was more than He could take 

So when you think you're all alone 
And no one sees your tears 
Let His love surround you 
And calm your deepest fears
