Carry my cross on the road to Calvary
Carry my sorrow for all the world to see
I stand accused of blasphemy
Of unrepentant heresy.
All the evil done to me
Leads me on the road to Calvary
Carry my cross on the road to Calvary.
Carry my sorrow for all the world to see.
Standing there upon the hill,
Disciples quiet lying still.
When suddenly you call to me.
Set the world alight
Open my eyes now I can see that father
You are the evening star,
You are the morning light.
The center of the universe,
The angel of the night.
You take me to the higher place
Where I belong
You give humanity it's song.
Carry my cross on the road to Calvary.
Pick up your cross, won't you come and follow me?
Now hanging there upon my cross,
I contemplate life's pending loss.
When suddenly you call to me.
Set the world alight open my eyes now I can see that father
You are the evening star,
You are the morning light.
The center of the universe
The angel of the night.
You take me to that special place where I belong.
You give humanity it's song.
You are the evening star,
You are the morning light.
The center of the universe
The angel of the night.
You take me to that special place my soul belongs.
You give humanity it's song.
