The Cross in My Pocket

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's not for identification

For all the world to see

It's simply an understanding

Between my Savior and me

When I put my hand in my pocket

To bring out a coin or key

The cross os there to remind me

Of the price He paid for me

It reminds me to be thankful

For my blessings 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 a cross in my pocket

Reminding no one but me

That Jesus Christ is Lord of my life

If only I'll let Him be..
