The Weight of Today

Sometimes life feels hard
You cant see the light of tomorrow shining through today
That’s when you’ve gotta pick yourself up and say
Jesus show me the way
Don’t let the weight of today
Keep me from finding you in everything I do
Help me find myself
Help me never be afraid
Help me run so that the weight of today
Can’t hold be back anymore
I am stronger than before
And I have something to say
Don’t let the weight of today
Hold us down
When it feels like life needs to stop and slow down
Keep the load of my feet so I can walk straight
Jesus help me see
Help me do the right thing
When wrong is so easy
and when I just want to lay on the floor and cry
whisper in my ear
so lovingly
that there are better ways to spend my energy
pick me up
oh Jesus
oh I am strong
and the weight of today
can’t stop me anymore
