We go through life carrying heavy burdens,
There are many desires, preoccupations, and fears.
All this makes our souls terribly burdened.
We feel that each day is getting worse the situation,
We feel the burden is becoming unsupportable.
Our hearts melt and fall into desperation.
This giant weight overshadows any and all happiness,
The mind no longer believes something good will happen.
The mind inhabits a deep pit, living in the darkness.
There is a point that is impossible to live in this way,
We fall to the ground, and the weep floods our being.
Everything is so terrible that we even desire to pass away.
In dense darkness, we hear someone calling,
Someone is saying our name.
We look around to see who is speaking.
It is calling That One who can rescue us,
The marvelous, the mighty, the faithful, the great master.
Jesus Christ calls on us, and from the pit, He will take us.
The Lord Jesus Christ illuminates and dissipates darkness,
He holds our hands and raises us.
Through a straight and enlightened way, He will drive us.
That mortal burden, Jesus Christ removes,
He throws away all bad things.
And He gives us His load which is very smooth.
Besides the relief, He always will be by our side,
He will never leave that we follow without aid.
He will never let us fall discouraged another time.
Whenever the load seems heavy again,
Jesus will provide us with His infinite strength.
We will overcome any and all circumstances.
