Life feels too much, too heavy to bear,
No wonder You cradle us with such care.
As we grow older, the burdens increase,
Each stage harder, never a release.I wonder sometimes, are these trials fair?
For my age, are they too much to wear?
Rage fills my heart, yet faith holds its place,
Believing in Your purpose, Your infinite grace.But God, sometimes the weight's too steep,
I can't lift it; it's too deep.
So here are my hands, open and bare,
Take it all, I lay it in prayer.Take these struggles, take this pain,
Let me see the sun after the rain.
My mind is fragile, it's had enough,
Tread gently, for life is tough.I feel I'm losing, drifting away,
Grant me the strength to face each day.
Let me rewind, let me unwind,
Restore my soul, my peace of mind.I love You, God, and I cherish life,
But help me let go of this endless strife.
Be with me in my valley lows,
As You've been in my mountain glows.
