Too Much To Bear

 

I feel I’m carrying a weight
That’s too heavy to bear,
But, I will carry it to You.
Then, Lord, I’ll leave it there.
 
I cannot fix what You can fix,
I cannot heal the lame,
I cannot give hope to the lost,
But I can share Your name.
 
I can’t make right all that’s gone wrong,
Nor mend what’s torn apart,
But I’m not too proud to ask You,
For I’m lowly of heart.
 
The anguish and the fears of all
Who cry out in despair
Are more than I can bear or heal.
I’m grateful, Lord, You’re there.
 
Oh, Lord, I’ll lay them at Your feet,
Then fall upon my face
And give to You what I can’t bear.
My hope lies in Your grace.
 
Lamentations 3:24-25
“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.
