Worn

Have you ever felt like you were so tired? So worn?
So heavy hearted? So weak? Like the struggle will never end?
Like sometimes it takes all of your strength just to breathe?
I have.

♪ I'm tired. I'm worn. My heart is heavy
From the work it takes to keep on breathing

I've made mistakes. I've let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed By the weight of this world
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win. Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn... Cause I'm worn

I know I need To lift my eyes up
But I'm too week. Life just won't let up
And I know that You can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win. Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn... Cause I'm worn

And my prayers are wearing thin
I'm worn even before the day begins
I'm worn I've lost my will to fight
I'm worn so heaven come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win. Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Yes all that's dead inside will be reborn
Though I'm worn
Yeah I'm worn

We are blessed in those dark times.
We have an Abba that is near to the broken-hearted
and saves those whose spirit is crushed {Tehillim/Psalm 34:18}.
He is the lifter of our heads {Tehillim/Psalm 3:3}.
He hears us when we cry out to Him. He lifts us out of the pit.
He puts a new song in our mouth {Tehillim 40:1-3}.
He gives beauty for ashes, oil of joy for mourning,
and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness {Yeshayahu/Isaiah 61:3}.


Thank You, Abba.
Baruch HaShem YHVH!
