“I’m Tired” is basically a song written out of honesty. Whether we want to admit it or not, I think all christians struggle with their faith at times. The speaker in the song is contemplating his faith and at first he questions if God really has kept His promises and admits that he’s struggling, but then he realizes that perhaps his perception is wrong. Slowly he starts to realize he’s sitting their questioning God, but what has he himself done to be the hands and feet of God? Then the bridge is basically him admitting to and letting go of all the laziness, lies, shortcomings, and complacency that he’s held onto for years.
Where’s the hope? Where’s the love? Has it bid bon voyage?
Oh God, Your promises, were they just mirages?
I’m strugglin’, worryin’, everyday
but then, in a whisper, I hear You say
chorus-I love you more than you can imagine
My plans for you, are better than you can fathom
I am with you, do not fear
please follow the direction I steer
could it be, happiness, is not a guarantee
but rather, happiness, is actually a journey
and the change, I’m looking for, starts with I
instead of just, looking to, looking to the other guy
chorus-I love you more than you can imagine
My plans for you, are better than you can fathom
I am with you, do not fear
please follow the direction I steer
I’m tired of just waiting
for things to get better
I’m tired of just haiting
my fellow sinner
I’m tired of just saying
that I’m alright
I’m tired of delaying
walking in Your light
I’m aware of my misses
but I’m trustin’ Your promises
as I start and end my day
I wanna hear You say
chorus-
I love you more than you can imagine
My plans for you, are better than you can fathom
I am with you, do not fear
please follow the direction I steer
