Subject: 'God, give me a burden'
Here's a request I've gotten. Web searches have come dry. I have no idea whether any of these lyrics are correctly rendered. I thought maybe it would ring a bell with someone on this list.

"Either Gospel or a Cantata" leaves the field pretty wide open!

---

it`s either gospel or a cantata. Hope you can help. Here`s the words that we know:

God, Give me a burden Oh, God, Give me a word To help the hurt and crying, wounded, hungry, lost and dying world.

Lord, we have so much more than we deserve...

Out of our treasure, wealth beyond measure.

We say that we love our neighbor, but we don`t even know their name. Do our lives decribe his heart or our lives in vain?
