Analysis of I Carried You To The Cross
Anita Gunter 1958 (Missouri)
Losing a child, can break your heart into You feel so overwhelmed, you don't know what to do. And when you feel like all hope is gone, everything is lost. Remember when I carried you through the sand, I carried you to the cross. So when you see one set of footprints in the sinking sand. That's when I picked you up and carried you to dry land. And when your heart is hurting, and you can't bare the loss. Remember when I carried you through the sand, I carried you to the cross
