Anxious.  Restless.  Can’t sleep.

I was sitting here tonight with a restless heart.  Don’t know why.  I feel like I need to sleep, but I just didn’t feel ready to put a lid on the journey called today.

So I’ve been sitting… thinking a little.

I downloaded Andrew Peterson’s new single (Purchase Here on iTunes)

After AP’s song finished Andy Gullahorn was next in my iTunes line-up.

These lyrics grabbed that restlessness and tackled it to the ground:

I know I just display my foolish pride
When I try to be an island to myself
You must be tired of all the stuff that I still hide
Because I just can’t seem to trust anyone else
It’s a lonely way to live
Such a lonely way to live

I’m a desperate man
I’m in desperate need
Of your saving hand
To come and rescue me

You’ve been more than patient all this time
If it were me I would have given up long ago
The first time that you pulled me from the mire
And I brushed you off to dig another hole
It’s a sad way to live
Such a sad, sad way to live

I’m a desperate man
I’m in desperate need
Of your saving hand
To come and rescue me

I used to be the strong one
The self-sufficient fool
I thought I needed no one
But the plain and simple truth
Is I’m a desperate man

I’m a desperate man
I’m in desperate need
Of your saving hand
To come and rescue me

I had to share it with you!

Peace at last!

Let’s put a lid on it.
