Lead me to the cross where
I can lay my burden down.
Lead me to Him who will
never let me drown.
Lead me to the Rock
that is higher than I.
Lead me to the One who
bottles the tears I cry.
Lead me to Him who knows
all my cares and sorrow.
Who holds my future and
all of my tomorrows.
There, I find solace in
the grip of His embrace.
So, lead me where I can rest
from this exhausting race.
He’s my source and my shield;
my covenant and mercy.
Lead me to God, whom I love
to the bursting.
When life is overwhelming and
I don’t know what to do,
Lead me to Your arms, O Lord.
Lead me to You.
“From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” Psalm 61:2
Father God, we need You. We cannot find the strength or wisdom on our own to properly care for the things and adversities we face. But this we do know, You are our Rock. You are the peace we find in the midst of all that overwhelms us. Take us by the hand and lead us to You – our safe sanctuary, our hiding place, from all these storms that blow our way. In the name of Jesus Christ, AMEN!
