Burden In Your Hand Lyrics - Singles - Underoath

Confusing and scared, 

there is a decision made with this choice 

a child has to pay 

She puts its life in her hands, 

and then she destroys its only chance to become someone in life 

You should have thought about the baby before you had sex, 

because you have destroyed a gift from God 

You kill, 

you destroyed 

Never will this baby be able to grow up or show its love 

You'll never hear it say "I love you, I love you" 

God does not give you the privilege to carry a child for nothing 

When you kill, 

you destroy that child's dreams and hopes 

How innocent a baby is... how can you put it to death? 

What if you were aborted... 

you could have never had life 

And now you make a choice to take this child's life 

because it is a burden in your hands 

A burden in your hands 

Destroyed out of convenience 

They put an end to your life 

because you're too big a burden 

and one that they can not have 

So they take your life before your first breath 

Will it stop? Will the killings continue? 

Babies die everyday because of a pro choice made 

Helpless and innocent, they are put to death 

Then why did the parents choose to plant a seed and then destroy it? 

Pray for the people who are killing the kids of tomorrow 

How desperately they need Jesus Christ in their hearts 

So they take your life 

because you're a burden in their hands 

Destroyed out of convenience 

They put a end to your life 

because you're too big a burden and one that they can not have 

So they take your life before your first breath, 

so they take your life before your first breath
