Holiness is faithfulness

Holiness is faithfulness
Holiness is joy
I am not bound to loneliness
When I follow Christ my Lord

I am looking for my Lord--Take your cross and follow me
I am looking for my way--Follow my steps and you will see
Must I sacrifice my glory?--Give it up and you'll be free.
Will I die in living shame?--Do not fear death you'll rise in me.

I have lost my strength I've fallen--Rise up, Son, to your feet
My Mother Mary whispers--In my heart, you'll be always with me
I am so afraid--Here comes Simon of Cyrene
Will you bear with me my burden?--Jesus, behind you I will carry

She gazes in my eyes--Veronica kneels at His feet
I have fallen once again--And she wipes the face that bleeds
Daughters of Jerusalem--Do not weep for me!
Father, catch me in your arms--For I am strong when I am weak

You know that I love you--No greater love than this.
I lay down my life for my friends--Jesus' body now is stripped
They have pierced my hands and feet--Crucified the heavenly king
On a tree between two thieves--Jesus redeemed the world from sin
