Rebecca's Walk

Amy sang this song on Sunday. I'm almost moved to tears as I read the words again. After all she's been through this summer, she was able to sing this song with a new perspective of her relationship with Christ and she truly sang it from her heart. Everyone who heard her sing it felt the depth she sang it with. I was thinking today that this song also speaks to me. I'm still learning too....how to trust God...especially with the things that mean the most to me...my kids being #1 on that list!!

Lay It Down

I've been lookin' till my eyes are tired of lookin'

Listenin' till my ears are numb from listenin'

Prayin' till my knees are sore from kneelin'

on the bedroom floor.

I know that you know that my heart is achin'

I'm running out of tears and my will is breakin'

I don't think that I can carry the burden of it anymore

All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans,

Are slowly slippin' through my folded hands

Chorus:So I'm gonna lay it down

I'm gonna learn to trust You now

What else can I do?Cause everything I am depends on You

And if the sun don't come back up

I know Your love will be enough

I'm gonna let it be, I'm gonna let it go,I'm gonna lay it down.

I've been walkin' through this world like I'm barely livin'

Buried in the doubt of this hole I've been diggin'

But You're pullin' me out I'm finally breathin' in the open air

This room may be dark but I'm finally seein'

There's a new ray of hope, and now I'm believin'

That the past is past, and the future's beginning to look brighter now

Oh, cause all of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans

Are safe and secure when I place them in Your hands

Chorus:So I'm gonna lay it down

I'm gonna learn to trust You now

Oh what else can I do, Cause everthing I am depends on You

And if the sun don't come back up

I know Your love will be enough

I'm gonna let it be, I'm gonna let it go,I'm gonna lay it down.
