I’m weary of my own complaints
I know I’m getting in Your way
My pride, my fear, they shake my faith
I need to trust, receive Your grace
I’ve tried to do it on my own
I’ve made a mess – may I come home?
Let me lay this at Your feet
Let me accept Your gift of peace
Sometimes my reflection
Makes me want to break the mirror
I’ve kept You at a distance
But now I want You nearer
When I am overcome with pain
When what I feel is guilt and shame
I’ll praise Your name
When I know I need to change
But I can’t find the way
I’ll praise Your name
Please forgive me when I stray
When I’ve tried to do it all
Let me rejoice through my pain
To see Your strength, oh, I’m so small
Get my mind off the bad stuff
Keep my focus right on You
I will not be defeated
With Your help, I’ll make it through
I will triumph through my trials
Because I know I’m not alone
This world won’t keep me down long
Someday I’ll be going home
When I am overcome with pain
When what I feel is guilt and shame
I’ll praise Your name
When I know I need to change
But I can’t find the way
I’ll praise Your name
