Текст Kris Kristofferson – Burden Of Freedom

I stand on the stairway
My back to the dungeon
The doorway to freedom
So close to my hand

Chorus:
Lord, help me to shoulder
The Burden of Freedom
And give me the courage
To Be What I Can
And When I am Wounded
By those who condemn me
Lord, help me forgive them
They don’t understand

Their lonely frustration
Descending to laughter
Erases the footprints
I leave in the Sand
But I’m free to travel
Where no one can follow
In search of the kingdom
They don’t understand

Chorus:
Lord, help me to shoulder
The Burden of Freedom
And give me the courage
To be what I can
