Time, To Rest

Oh Lord, I’m weary in this life,

That seems so filled with strain.
I long to rest, but find no peace
Wherein I can remain.
 
I rush from problem to problem
And cannot seem to rest.
It’s as if my life is becoming
Some sort of constant test.
 
And yet I know, if I just pause
To try and seek Your will
The world may not stop spinning fast,
But my mind will be still.
 
For, in Your Grace, is boundless peace,
Even for those like me
Who cannot seem to stop racing
The constant, churning sea.
 
So Lord, I give my stress to You,
I’ve done my very best,
But right now, Lord, the thing I need
Is time with You, to rest!
 
Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
