God lift this burden from my shoulders Twin anchors I can not shake I can not bare the weight A tenacious monkey who plauges me if I sleep or if I wake This is no act I have no organ he has no cup I earn nothing from this The voracious monkey eats me up Ebbing my soul, spirit, and pride Help me I tire of giving this monkey a ride He refuses to shake I fear without intervention my life I will forsake Intellectually this wise insight I know, but with the circus I always go So if Lord your love is true Cast your eye from above me Pray I you Recover thee Lexi Hilife
