Would You Hear My Plea

Lyrics by Jeff Sutter Music by Jeff Sutter

I feel the weight of my burdens tonight

They're tearing me down, they make me weak

Trying to escape with all of my might

Trouble and chaos arise, rest is what I seek

People take away, from my life

Do You know I'm hurt, Do You know I'm sad

My closest friend is my personal strife

I'm broken Lord, is this what You would have

CHORUS:

As I kneel, would You hear my plea

Only You can rescue me

Be my strength, be my shield

Tonight to You, my burdens I yield

The weight of the world comes crashing down

I'm feeling desolate and alone

My strength is gone, will I not be found

Is this all I have sown

Will You stretch out Your hand

Will You hold a lantern in the night

Will I ever really understand

Who You are, I'm reaching toward Your light
