I need you, Lord more than anything there has ever been,

To love, to hold, to comfort, to clean my sin.

I'll love you forever but not with great ease

I just have to remember what chains your love frees.

Troubles surround me everywhere I look

But when I am frail I pick up Your book.

Lord, this helps me more than words can state-

It makes me free and ensures my fate.

I want your love and everything that you will offer-

Some trust, some faith, some hope, some of the Father.

But nothing you give can save my soul unless I chose

To put my trust in You and forget what I lose.

Please forgive me, Lord, for the wrongs unto you I have done,

For what I will do and for what now is gone.

I need this, Lord, or I fear that I will lose

The race in behalf of the pure choice that I did choose.

Troubles surround me everywhere I look

But when I am frail I pick up Your book.

Lord, this helps me more than words can state-

It makes me free and ensures my fate…
