weary

I’ve been looking until my eyes are tired
Listening until my ears are numb
Praying until my knees are sore from being on the floor

I know that You know that my heart is aching
Running out of tears and my will is breaking
I don’t think that I can carry the burden anymore

All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans
Are slowly slipping through my folded hands

I’ve been walking through this world like I’m barely living
Buried in the doubt of this hole I’ve been digging
But You’re pulling me out and I’m breathing in the open air

This room is dark but I will be seeing
There’s a new ray of hope and I am believing
That the past is the past and the future will look brighter

Because all my hopes and dreams and my best laid plans
All are safe and secure when I place them in Your hands

So I’m gonna lay it down
I’m gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun doesn't come back up
I know Your love will be enough
I’m gonna let it be, I’m gonna let it go
I’m gonna lay it down
