There are the times Lord
when my heart grows weary
this body tired of the struggle
I long for relief
I desire rest
from the battle that is fought
to make it through the day by day
body and spirit groan under the burdens
struggling along this rutted path of life
yet this burden, this cross I bear gladly
for I know
I know, that what I need comes from You
You are my peaceful sanctuary
in You, I will find the rest I long for
the peace that this weary heart desires
safe in You
no matter what carries on around me
safe in You
even as the storms rage
for no matter what may happen
whether I will walk longer in this life
or my time is finished
closing my eyes to this place
and opening them with You
I know, in my heart of hearts I know
You are Lord, You are King
in You, I am safe
in You, with You, this heart, will grown no more.
