Weary, with Sorrow

 

Oh Lord, I need Your peace today,
I’m weary to my soul.
My hope rests in Your grace alone,
To make what’s broken whole.
 
Too many days without much rest,
A precious loved one lost.
Sometimes I wonder if this life
Is worth all of the cost.
 
Then I remember the true price
That You paid for my life,
And I’m ashamed that I complain
About my daily strife.
 
Lord, teach me how to live for You
As You have lived for me.
Open my mind, my heart, my eyes
That I might clearly see
 
The path You marked with Your footsteps,
The person I should be.
This life may weigh upon me now,
But Your love set me free.
 
Psalm 119:27-28
Cause me to understand the way of your precepts, that I may meditate on your wonderful deeds. My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word.
