Weary Heart (Lyrics) - Walt Harrah | Christian Lament

Описание: An original Christian worship song that is based on Biblical truth. God will do what He promised. Perfect for prayer, reflection, and quiet (or noisy) worship.

Psalm 55 is a lament psalm, one of almost one third of the book of Psalms. Emily Knight gives us some perspective on lament in scripture:

"As a Christian practice, lament does not simply rehearse the complaints of the cultural moment. It penetrates further as a genuine acknowledgment of suffering, not as a cheap, tweetable outcry, but as the real groan of a world where all is not right. And it entrusts this suffering to God in the form of prayer – prayer that in its very articulation hopes, assumes, we will be heard and answered."

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Oh that I had the wings of a bird
I would flee the stress and be at rest
Truth is slipping while wrong is preferred
This world's constantly at odds with me

[Chorus]
You're the very one I need to run to
Shelter me under your wings
Out of this pit that I'm in
Spirit a new work begin
Fill me with joy once again
Until this weary heart sings

[Verse 2]
Anguish taunts me my heart's filled with pain
In this godless age the wicked rage
Show your power, their ranting restrain
Evil plans defeat, end their deceit

[Chorus]
You're the very one I need to run to
Shelter me under your wings
Out of the pit that I'm in
Spirit a new work begin
Fill me with joy once again
Until this weary heart sings

[Verse 3]
Take these burdens that weigh on my heart
I cast every care upon you there
As for me Lord I'll trust in your word
To be life to me abundantly

[Chorus]
You're the very one I need to run to
Shelter me under your wings
Out of the pit that I'm in
Spirit a new work begin
Fill me with joy once again
Until this weary heart sings

[Outro]
Oh you're the very one I need to run to
Shelter me under your wings
Out of the pit that I'm in
Oh spirit anew work begin
Fill me with joy once again
Until this weary heart sings
fill me with joy once again
Until this weary heart sings
