It’s not how long a burden you’ve carried,
It’s not how long you’ve been making mistakes.
it takes a heart to heal,
It’s not how long you’ve been tired and sick.
It’s not how long you’
It’s not how long ve known the pain you feel,
It’s not how long you have to make this click.
It’s not how long the cancer’s been winning,

Dining with the King of all the nations,
Thanking the Son who was brutally slain.
