My Burden, Light

J.M.J. + O.B.T. + M.G.R.*

Could it be
that I received
too much light on
April 16, 1998?

It sure feels like a burden
Funny how the story goes...


You're in the darkness
And the waters are warm,
You're livin' life easy
And you're doing no harm,
At least that's what you think...
You're really on the brink.
(Your angel gives a wink.)

Your eyes are closed 
To the dangers around,
You're climbing up the ladder
And think you're heaven bound,
Is this a holy place?
Have I been caught off base?
(Hail Mary, full of grace...)

You dive off the cliff
And you never turn back,
Cause you enter the deep
Just like a stone through a crack,
In the earthen shell
They say you're bound for hell.
(You hear the tolling bell.)

The deeper you sink yeah
The hotter it gets,
The Truth it compels ya
To a life without nets,
To make a sudden save
And keep you from the grave.
(You find you're in the nave.) 

At 450 ft, it fits from home to the Monuments


Sincerely yours
in Jesus through Mary,
Mike Rizzio

Imitate Mary
Become like Jesus
Live for the Triune God

Seek the Light of Our Lord Jesus Christ
See you on the High Ground!
