Verso 1

On the far ends of the earth
In the shadows where evil lurks
Daughters and Sons
In the image of God
Fall to the enemy's scheme

Verso 2

There where the angels roam
The Father looked down from His Throne
He saw every scar
And with grace in His heart
He sent His Son to redeem

Coro

With the weight of the world
On His shoulders
It's more than a cross He would bear
The sins of the world as His suffering
Only His love kept Him there
The guilt of all man
Nailed through His hands
To carry the weight of the world

Verso 3

Innocence sentenced to die
Willing to lay down His life
The pure spotless Lamb
Was slaughtered for man
And by His wounds we are healed

Coro

With the weight of the world
On His shoulders
It's more than a cross He would bear
The sins of the world as His suffering
Only His love kept Him there
The guilt of all man
Nailed through His hands
To carry the weight of the world

Puente

Oh how precious is the flow
That makes me white white as snow
No other fount I know
The blood of Jesus saves my soul

Coro

With the weight of the world
On His shoulders
It's more than a cross He would bear
The sins of the world as His suffering
Only His love kept Him there
The guilt of all man
Nailed through His hands
To carry the weight of the world
