I know that look in your eyes
I see the pain behind your smile
Please don't hold it all inside
Together we can run
To the finish line
And when you are tired
I'll carry you
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes too heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
Share your burden now
I will listen
And when I'm weak
Will you hold me to the truth
That we can go on,
For we are carried
Three strands of chord
Cannot be easily torn
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes too heavy
And your feet too tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
God will carry us (4X)
Before I say one more word
Here me say I love You
My love comes from a heart that overflows
With love Who fills me
Comforts me
Comforts you
With arms stretched out He said,
"I'll carry you"
I can't walk this road without you
You cannot go it alone
We were never meant to make it on our own
When the load becomes too heavy
And your feet to tired to walk
I will carry you and we'll be carried on
(Repeat)

Behind the Song:"Not long ago I watched on video
an Australian adventure race.
A female in one of the teams was
told to quit, because of an injury
to her ankle. Instead of giving in,
the other teammates carried her
the rest of the way...
It was so powerful, I cried." - Rebecca St. James
