Burden-Bearers

Topics: classic

Burden-bearers are we all,     Great and small.     Burden-sharers be ye all,     Great and small!     Where another shares the load,     Two draw nearer God.     Yet there are burdens we can share with none,     Save God;     And paths remote where we must walk alone,     With God;     For lonely burden and for path apart--     Thank God!     If these but serve to bring the burdened heart     To God.
