Carry Me to the Cross

I finally found the name and lyrics for the song that I've been searching for ever since I first heard it on the radio.   It's "Carry Me to the Cross" by Kutless:

When the path is daunting
And every step exhausting
I'm not alone
I'm not alone, no, no
I feel you draw me closer
All these burdens on my shoulder
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
You pull me me from this place

Chorus:

Hellelujah
You carry me every day
You carry me all all the way
Hallelujah
You carry me to the
You carry me to the cross

How your love has moved me, yeah
To the foot of all your glory
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
I'm not alone

(Chorus)

All of these cities you have built
And every cathedral you have filled
To all of creation you gave life with your hands
And with those hands you comfort me
You lift me up from my knees
And carry me
You carry me

(Chorus)

You carry me to the
You carry me to the cross
The cross
You carry me to the
You carry me to the cross


This song just seemed to put into words how I was feeling; and the repeated phrase "I'm not alone" just spoke to me when I was feeling like "Atlas", carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders by myself.  But, this was a good reminder that God is always with me to carry me.  Amen.
