Share My Yoke (Written by Joy Webb)

When I’m tired and nothing’s going right for me,
When things I’ve counted on
Just do not come my way,
When in my mind the
Thick grey folds of doubt arise,
It’s then I seem to hear Him say:

“Share My yoke and find that I am joined with you;
Your slightest movement I shall feel and be there too!
Share My yoke and come the way that I must go!
In our ‘togetherness’ My peace you’ll know;
The world beholding us will see it so!”

When I’m perplexed
And no one’s understanding me,
When even safest thoughts collapse in disarray,
When I’ve lost the things
That always seemed so sure,
It’s then I need to hear Him say:

When I’m alone and nothing’s getting through to me
An isolation that increases day by day,
When closest friends can seem a thousand miles away,
It’s then I long to hear Him say:

This is the best solo rendition of this most beautiful prayer. Thank you so very much.
