Sunday Song - Worn

I have been listening to this song a lot lately and thought I would share it in case someone else out there needs to hear it.

Some days I truly just do feel so very worn, the burdens of this life just feel so heavy. I love this song because it makes me feel like it's okay to be worn and tired. Life is hard, but it's not the end, we have something to keep on fighting and living for and that someday our struggles will end.

I know there are many of you out there who have been through or are going through some incredible struggles. One of the parts of our journey that I have been so blessed by is having others share their experiences with me. To have people that know what I've been through and to be that person for someone else, while I wish none of us had been there, has been an amazing experience. I'm thankful that people feel more open to sharing when they know someone else has "been there". I think being able to talk about it and not just keeping it inside is such a huge part of the healing process. So please know that you aren't alone.

It's a relief to know that this life isn't all there is and that someday my heart will be made whole when I get to heaven. The pain and sorrows will be gone!

"Worn" - Tenth Avenue North

I’m Tired I’m worn
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes
To keep on breathing
I’ve made mistakes
I’ve let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed
By the weight of this world

And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn

I know I need to lift my eyes up
But I'm too weak
Life just won’t let up
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn

My prayers are wearing thin
Yeah, I’m worn
Even before the day begins
Yeah, I’m worn
I’ve lost my will to fight
I’m worn
So, heaven come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause all that’s dead inside will be reborn

Though I’m worn
Yeah I’m worn

Psalm 18:16-19

He reached down from on high and took hold of me;

he drew me out of deep waters.

He rescued me from my powerful enemy,

from my foes, who were too strong for me.

They confronted me in the day of my disaster,

but the Lord was my support.

He brought me into a spacious place;

he rescued me because he delighted in me.
