  			Intro – E  A  B  E  -  2x 
 
E                           A            E 
Traveling through Jerusalem Simon us and me 
     A             E             B            E 
Came upon the crucifixion of the innocent Nazarene  
                                  A               E 
Soldiers shouted orders that gave Simon’s heart a chill 
        A                   E         B                 E 
Then he took the cross from Jesus and carried it up the hill 
 

    A                   E      B       E                  
The unexpected cross is always hard to bear  
                                               B 
But there’s glory in the suffering triumph and despair 
    E                                                A 
For Christ is our example and the crown is worth the cost 
                           E         B          E    A   B 
Lord, help me to bear faithfully the unexpected cross 
 
 
 
E                        A           E 
Along the road to heaven crosses lie unsaved 
   A             E         B               E 
A crisis for the moment to keep the spirit key 
                                  A            E 
As Jesus gives the orders help me sacrifice my will 
     A                E         B              E 
Take up the cross and follow to victory on the hill 
 
 
    A                   E      B       E                  
The unexpected cross is always hard to bear  
                                               B 
But there’s glory in the suffering triumph and despair 
    E                                                A 
For Christ is our example and the crown is worth the cost 
                           E         B          E     
Lord, help me to bear faithfully the unexpected cross 
      A                    E         B          E     
Lord, help me to bear faithfully the unexpected cross
 
 
 
Ending - E   A   B   E   A   B  E
