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 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 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 the Lord of my life


If only I'll let Him be.
