Songtexte By Your Name - Michael Card

I failed again to make the mark, I've lost my way once more
I tried to do it by myself like so many times before
And now again I turn to you, I'm hungry and confused
By now my strength's dissolved away, and I feel like I've been used

If you leave me to myself, oh, Lord
It will always be the same
It's you who'll have to hold my hand
And protect me by your name

I turn and find you there for me, You've been waiting all along
The open arms, the sweet relief, and you whisper me a song
At times like these, I ask myself, how could I have ever strayed
And forgotten all you've given me and lost sight of what you paid

If you leave me to myself, oh, Lord
It will always be the same
It's you who'll have to hold my hand
And protect me by your name

It's you who'll have to hold my hand
And protect me by your name
