Cross

I carry a cross in my pocket

A simple reminder to me

Of the fact that I am a Christian

No matter where I may be

This little Cross is not magic,

Nor is it a good luck charm:

It isn't meant to protect me

From every physical harm.

It not for identification

For all the world to see...

It's simple and understanding,

Between my Savior and me.

When I put my hand in my pocket

To bring out a coin are a key,

The cross is there to remind me

Of the price He paid for me.

It reminds me, too, to be thankful

For my Blessing day by day,

And to strive to serve Him better

In all that I do and say.

It's also a daily reminder

Of the peace and Comfort I share.

With all who know my master

And give themselves to His care.

So I carry the cross in my pocket

Reminding me, no one but me

That Jesus Christ is Lord of my life

If only I will let Him be!

I have carried this Cross in my Pocket for years

I have the original copy of this  when it first came out.
