Tired and Weary, But I’m Coming Lord

 

Lord,

I know You love me

I know You truly care

I know You’re my Shepherd

I have no need or want to bear.

I know You’re my Savior

I know You promise

You’ll be with me forever

I know You’re working

I know I can trust You—

if I look real hard

I can see Your hand

but . . . I’m scared.

 

I’m scared

this trial going on for years

won’t turn out the way I want

I tremble in my fear

not sure I will be able to handle

where we have to walk from here to there.

You say all things work together

for good to those who trust in You

I know I need to trust

I just have no more words to pray

I don’t know what to say

As this goes on another day.

 

Somewhere in this darkness

I know there is Your light

help me Lord to see You

to seek with all my might.

I choose to believe You’re faithful

I choose to believe You are true

I also choose to believe, You are

the only way and truth.

 

So, I will take another deep breath

and for another day

I’ll take Your hand once again

trusting You’ll lead my way.

‘Cause the truth is Lord,

I don’t know what else to do

my heart is breaking

my soul is aching

but suddenly, in this tearful stillness

in this prayerful quiet I hear,

 

“Come to Me my child,

My peace I give to you.”

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart,

and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30

 

From My Heart to Yours,

Marcie 🙂
