I Need You

I am frail, broken easily

Without fail, my strength keeps failing me

All alone, I'm powerless

To lift myself from the pit that I am in

 

I need You, Jesus

I need You, Jesus

 

From Your throne in heaven's light

Descended down into my broken life

To right the wrong, to make a way

To bear the load that I deserved to bear alone

 

I need You, Jesus

 

I need You, Jesus

I need clean hands

I can't, You can

I need You, Jesus

 

On the cross on our behalf

The Son of God bore the Father's wrath

And by His blood, the scars and pain

The perfect Son, took the fall and took our place

 

In His grace and unfailing love

The risen King gave His hand to us

To lift us up, from the pit

And set our feet upon a rock that ever stands

 

On my own I've tried and tried

To save myself, to fill my life

But the more I do the more I find

That I need You, I need You, I need You
