Tired of Trying

VERSE ONE
God, I’ve really tried this week
To be the best that I can be
But I’m worried I still didn’t do enough
And I don’t feel the joy I thought I would
For doing things you’ve said are good
Cause I worked so hard to try and earn Your love

CHORUS
Tired of trying, tired of falling flat on my face
Tired of trying to prove my love or repay Your grace
Cause this fear and this guilt are sad motivation
When what You want is for me to love You more
But even that I can’t do without You breaking through
Tired of trying, Lord, change my heart.

VERSE TWO
Running hard as I can go on
The hamster wheel of obligation
Can’t anybody see this is killing me
But I don't know what right I have to pout
Lord, change me from the inside out
When the focus is on You then I’ll be free

BRIDGE
God, I can’t, but You can, how I long for Your hand
To draw me back to sit at Your precious feet
Instead of looking at all that I’m looking to do
I need to turn my eyes back to You

SECOND BRIDGE
Lord, I want to love you more
Help me love you more
Restore the joy of my salvation
Help me to love you more
