YOUR LIGHT YOKE

Your glory’s weight is our light yoke
     As shoulder You our load,
For weight of truth You to us spoke
     When You stepped on our road.

We find Your truth is hard to bear
     If we go it alone.
In pride we’re trapped in Satan’s snare–
     For our sin You atone.

In Cross we find Your glory’s weight
     That pierces deep our hearts–
Removes the sin and radiates
     Your love through inward parts.

Your glory’s yoke for us is light
     Compared to Adam’s sin;
Its weight lifts us to heaven’s height
     As we are born again.

And when that final day will come,
     With Jesus we will soar
With weight that’s light and sin undone;
     We cannot ask for more.
