HIS CALL My load is too heavy; My shoulders are broad! My feet are too weary; I’ll give you strength! I can’t see the way, Lord; I’ll be your guide! The path is so steep though; One steep at a time! I fear I shall stumble; I’ll help you stand! I’m poorly prepared, Lord; I’ll teach you all! Lord, here’s a crossroads; I am the way! I’ll go, then, where you call; Follow thou Me!
