Tired and Worn

Well, it’s been a rough couple of weeks. We’ve had some family events going on that require a lot of time and patience. Very. stressful. I have been spread so thin across the commitments of our life that I feel I am not succeeding at any of them! Been there?

This past couple of weeks we cut our life down to only the MUST DO activities, all the optional ones went by the wayside. Feels like we are just coming out of the fog.

One of the things that has really been helping us through this time was this song…I truly believe that music soothes the soul. A song can express the deep feelings we experience but are unable to put into words of our own.

Tired and Worn

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 weak
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

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 so 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

Hoping in the One who can lift our eyes up… Blessings to you! ~Kelly
