Parody of "Crossroads" by Cream
(Matthew 10:38, 11:29-30, 16:24, 27:32; Mark 8:34, 15:21; Luke 9:23, 14:27, 23:26; Romans 16:13; Acts 11:20, 13:1; Galatians 2:20)
Simon helped with the cross load
Dwelt in old Cyrene
Helped with the cross load
Helped our Lord, I mean
Ask someone about the verses, check in Mark 15
Simon helped with the cross load
Right in back of Christ
Helped with the cross load
Simon's an African guy
Nobody seemed to notice
Whether he was black or white
Well, our Lord died and rose, well
Take my word and my advice
Do what Simon does, pal
Take your cross and follow Christ
You can feel that His yoke's easy
And His burden's light
LEAD
Know He died and rose, well
Take my word and my advice
Do it now, and don't fail
Take your cross and follow Christ
He can help bear your cross, baby
Once He lives inside
LEAD
You can walk with that cross
Well, my friend, don't put it down
Walk with that cross
Well, my friend, don't put it down
We're all staring at a crossload
Believe and seek Him now
Matthew 16:24
Then Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny
themselves and take up their cross and follow me.
