Jesus man of sorrows
Has taught me to ask

Amidst the turmoil
I wonder what God
Has created for me
To enjoy
To choose delight
Over misery
Despite circumstance

Happiness is happenstance
But Joy is a choice
Life may be hard
But Peace is a choice
Betrayal is inevitable
But Love is a choice

To be deceived is unavoidable
To choose to seek the Truth
Is Freedom

I leave my burden
At His feet

As Jesus- Lord of ALL
Has taught me to sing
