Lay It Down | A Song for the Tired Soul

Описание: Are you tired of being the "strong one"? Are you carrying burdens that God never asked you to carry? This song is your permission to stop fighting and start resting.

"Lay It Down" is a worship anthem for the weary warrior. True strength isn't holding it all together; it's handing it all over to Him.

LYRICS:

I’ve been carrying the world on a fractured spine
Telling everybody that I’m doing fine
I’m the strong one, I’m the rock, I’m the steady hand
But inside I’m crumbling like shifting sand

I’m tired of the armor, it’s heavy and cold
I’m tired of the stories that I’ve oversold
I need a place where I don’t have to lead
Where I can just be broken, where I can just bleed

You said Your yoke is easy, You said Your burden’s light
But I’ve been trying to win this on my own might
I’m white-knuckling the steering wheel of my life
Cutting my own hands on the edge of the knife

So I lay it down, I lay it down
The crown I made, the walls I found
I’m trading my grip for Your open grace
I’m trading my running for Your embrace
I don’t have to be the hero in this town
God, I’m tired… so I lay it down.

They call me a soldier, but I feel like a casualty.
Fighting battles in my mind that nobody else can see.
I thought faith meant never showing a crack
I thought strength meant never looking back.

But even Jesus wept. Even Jesus prayed.
Even the Savior needed a quiet place to fade.
So why am I trying to be stronger than God?
Walking on water while I’m drowning in the flood.
I’m done with the performance. I’m done with the mask.
I’m emptying the cup, that’s all that You ask.
You don’t need my strength, You just need my trust
So I’m falling apart… right into the dust.

So I lay it down, I lay it down
The crown I made, the walls I found
I’m trading my grip for Your open grace
I’m trading my running for Your embrace
I don’t have to be the hero in this town
God, I’m tired… so I lay it down.

Take the pressure off my chest
Give me rest, give me rest
Take the worry from my head
Give me rest, give me rest

It’s Yours now.
It’s all Yours now.
I’m letting go.
I lay it down.
