I'm tired, oh Lord, so tired This prayer is nothing new This prayer is a broken record And no surprise to you My eyes are heavy Lord They are weighted with my soul My vision is still blurry It's begun to take a toal My breath is labored Lord Exhaustion has a sting Its hard to cling to hope Of what tomorrow will bring My arms are tired Lord I have bruises from my fight This enemy I cannot see Has a grip on me so tight My legs are weak Lord They scream at me to stop They warn me they are shaking I feel my body drop My mind is blurred Lord So little now seems clear Logic still evades me And all I feel is fear My lips are trembling Lord They wont let out my pain My screaming has no voice My attempts are made in vain My heart is breaking Lord Each day I feel it crack Im reminded of my failures And all the strength I lack My soul is weary Lord So again I'll turn to You And pray that in your arms I'll feel my strength renew

I'm Tired
I'm tired, oh Lord, so tired This prayer is nothing new This prayer is a broken record And no surprise to you My eyes are heavy Lord They are weighted with my soul My vision is still blurry It's begun to take a toal My breath is labored Lord Exhaustion has a sting Its hard to cling to hope Of what tomorrow will bring My arms are tired Lord I have bruises from my fight This enemy I cannot see Has a grip on me so tight My legs are weak Lord They scream at me to stop They warn me they are shaking I feel my body drop My mind is blurred Lord So little now seems clear Logic still evades me And all I feel is fear My lips are trembling Lord They wont let out my pain My screaming has no voice My attempts are made in vain My heart is breaking Lord Each day I feel it crack Im reminded of my failures And all the strength I lack My soul is weary Lord So again I'll turn to You And pray that in your arms I'll feel my strength renew
