V.1
So many men are lonely in this day of unbelief
They only have today and no tomorrow
But I can surely say that I've found a better
way
To free myself from this old world of sin

V.2
We live in a day when heartache rules the
smile
And people only think about them - selves
But I've got something grand to put my
trust upon ,
The of Jesus' }-->blessed name .

Chorus:
I'll carry the cross for Jesus ,
I'll carry the cross for my Lord ,
I'll fight through the battle and win in the end
'Cause I'm carrying the cross for God.

I'm looking ahead to that day when Christ shall come
And ride down from His mansion in the sky.
The trumpet will sound as we're lifted from the ground.
And Christ will take us home for evermore.
