Verse 1
Rough and rugged was the path You walked,
Every step was filled with pain.
Never once did You complain;
You bore the cross alone.
Faithful to the Father's will,
You carried every load—
Teach me, Lord, to walk like You,
And bear my cross alone.
Chorus
How did You endure it, Lord?
It could not have been easy.
Alone You bore the weight of sin
So I could be set free.
Teach me, blessed Lord, I pray,
To trust You all life long;
When trials press on every side,
Help me, Lord, to be strong.
Verse 2
Teach me, Lord, when trials come,
And heavy burdens fall.
Keep my heart from every complaint;
Be my strength through all.
When the road is steep and long,
And tears fill up my eyes,
Teach me, Lord, to walk like You,
And bear my cross alone.
Verse 3
No one fully knows my pain,
But, Lord, You understand.
You have walked this road before,
And hold me by the hand.
When my weary heart grows faint,
And hope seems almost gone,
Teach me, Lord, to walk like You,
And bear my cross alone.
Final Chorus
How did You endure it, Lord?
It could not have been easy.
Alone You bore the weight of sin
So I could be set free.
Teach me, blessed Lord, I pray,
To trust You all life long;
Through every burden, every trial,
Help me, Lord, to be strong.
