Prompt / Lyrics
Get along stranger, carry that cross The Lord has need of a strong man now Get along Simon pick it up quick The Lord has fallen down. It started on a morning when the sun was hot I came to town for the temple to see. The crowds were pressing me and I could not walk That’s when the Lord came a next to me. Get along stranger, carry that cross The Lord has need of a strong man now Get along Simon pick it up quick The Lord has fallen down. So I bent over and grabbed that cross Heaviest thing I ever did bear The Lord he walked up by himself Til they hung him on the cross up there Get along stranger, carry that cross The Lord has need of a strong man now Get along Simon pick it up quick The Lord has fallen down. I watched him die but I did not know What manner of man this was Now I know and I’m glad I listened To the voice I heard from above Get along stranger, carry that cross The Lord has need of a strong man now Get along Simon pick it up quick The Lord has fallen down.
