Trial and living
Stop by the tear
Lift your heart
Bring it here

Water stripping
Blanket colder
Voice holds her
Nobly goes away

List of the hero
Slow to the pillow
Pain fades
Child of the sixties stays

Trade wind crying
Love leads the dying
Wonder where next
He plays

Fist reaches mighty
Heart drops pity
As they close
The stage

Trial and living
Stop by the tear drop
Lift your heart
Bring it here






Author Notes:
Burden of Freedom by Kris Kristofferson,
I stand on the stairway
My back to the dungeon
The doorway to freedom
So 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.
