Verse 1 I've carried burdens no one else could see, Praying for the broken while forgetting me. I poured out every drop until the well ran dry, Still lifting up my hands beneath an empty sky. The voices never stopped, the needs were always near, I smiled through every sermon, but You saw every tear. Lord, remind me once again That even shepherds need Your hand. Pre-Chorus You never asked me to carry it all. You called me to trust when I started to fall. Chorus When faithful leaders burn out, You never burn out on us. When our strength is gone, Your strength is enough. Teach us to rest in Your presence, To breathe in Your amazing grace. The Church is Yours forever; We're held by Your embrace. Verse 2 I thought that saying "yes" to everything Was the only way to honor You, my King. But You still whispered through the noise: "Be still... and hear My voice." Raise up others, share the load; No one walks this road alone. Your Kingdom stands by faithful hearts, Not by one exhausted soul. Pre-Chorus You are the Shepherd leading us home. Your grace reminds us we're never alone. Chorus When faithful leaders burn out, You never burn out on us. When our hope grows weak, Your love still lifts us up. Teach us to trust Your timing, To lay our burdens at Your feet. The harvest still belongs to You; Your power makes us complete. Bridge (Heavy guitars, soaring vocals) You're the God who never slumbers! You're the Rock that never breaks! We are weak, but You are stronger; You renew the ones who wait. Build Your Church through many servants, Not by one who stands alone. Every burden laid before You Finds its rest before Your throne. Final Chorus When faithful leaders burn out, You call us back to life. You restore the weary heart; You bring hope through the night. We'll serve with joy, not striving, We'll lead by grace, not fear. Jesus, You are still the Shepherd; Your voice is all we hear. Outro The Church was never mine... It has always been Yours. The burden is lighter... When placed in Your hands. Restore us, Lord... And lead us on.
