DUTY AND REMORSE

DUTY AND REMORSE
Duty, you can be too hard to do.
Man may find it heavy to perform.
"Father, if it may be possible
to excuse me, but Your will be done."

Painful was the cross that Jesus had,
but He could not shun that heavy load
as remorse would be more serious weight
Jesus could not bear in His soft heart.

Where are we from this most common task,
which we daily face and can't escape?
Can we shun the tasks and have remorse
as we do not have the strength of Christ?

Narrow is the gate that leads to God;
it goes through the duties which are hard.
Jesus could achieve and gained the sky;
can we do the same and self defy?
