Oh, how I need You, Lord...

My heart is restless in me
My wings are all worn out
I'm walking in the wilderness
And I cannot get out
I need You, Oh, I need You
Blessed Savior come
I need You, Oh, I need You
Fill the every longing in my soul

My bed is soaked with sadness
My sadness has no end
A downward spiral of despair
That I keep falling in
I need You, Oh, I need You
To You my soul shall fly
I need You, Oh, I need You
Yahweh, how I love You more than life

Your silence is like death to me
So won't You hear my desperate plea

It's not that I am stronger
Look at my feeble wings
But I've been lifted higher
Yahweh's lifted me in His own strength

And made my heart in grace to stay
You've made my heart in grace to stay
Lord, make my heart in grace to stay
--The Swift, I Need You

So don't you turn away from me
Because my heart and my hopes, they're in your hands
If I don't seem certain
It's just a common fear from a common man
But I am in your hands
--Bebo Norman, In Your Hands

Weak and wounded sinner, Lost and left to die,
O, raise your head for Love is passing by

And like a newborn baby, Don't be afraid to crawl,
And remember when you walk sometimes we fall... so
Fall on Jesus,Fall on Jesus, Fall on Jesus and live

Sometimes the way is lonely,
And steep and filled with pain,
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain... then
Cry to Jesus,Cry to Jesus,Cry to Jesus and live...

--Untitled Hymn (Come to Jesus), Chris Rice

When I am alone...give me Jesus.
