No Capo
Standard Tuning


  C              F        C
I traveled on a lonely road and no one seemed to care.
                D         G
The burden on my weary back had bowed me to despair;
  C              F         C
I oft complained to Jesus how folks were treating me,
   F        C   G   C F C
And then I heard Him say so tenderly,

  F            C
"My feet were also weary, upon the Calvary road;
   F            D         G
The cross became so heavy, I fell beneath the load,
   C             F      C
Be faithful weary pilgrim the morning I can see,
    F          C   G    C  F  C G
Just lift your cross and follow close to me."

  C             F        C
"I work so hard for Jesus" I often boast and say
                   D        G
"I've sacrificed a lot of things to walk the narrow way,
  C               F       C
I gave up fame and fortune, I'm worth a lot to Thee"
   F        C   G     C F C
And then I hear Him gently say to me,

  F               C
"I left the throne of glory and counted it but loss,
   F             D       G
My hands were nailed in anger upon a cruel cross,
   C                F         C
But now we'll make the journey with your hand safe in mine,
   F          C   G   C  F C G
So lift your cross and follow close to me.

Instrumental:

  C           F         C
Oh Jesus if I die upon a foreign field someday,
                      D      G
'Twould be no more than love demands, no less could I repay,
    C               F        C
"No greater love hath mortal man than for a friend to die"
    F         C   G     C F C
These are the words He gently spoke to me,

   F           C
"If just a cup of water I place within your hand
    F           D      G
Then just a cup of water is all that I demand.
   C             F       C
But if by death to living they can Thy glory see,
    F         C   G    C
