I Need You

I want to learn to walk and follow all your ways
your word is like a shining guide through dying days
my heart is so deceitful lying to my face
tells me all the things I want besides your saving grace

Oh I need you Lord I need you
the one who calmed the storms
to calm the storms in me
Oh I need you Lord I need you
the one who is the light
to light the dark in me

I taste a hint of death on every single breath
and I shuffle tired feet with every single step
but I'll trust in you, your word, your life, your promises
my glory and the lifter of my head

Irrevocable and strong are your covenants oh God
and the love that you have shown is the only hope I own
set my gaze upon the cross and rejoice at satan's loss
for my victory is won by my Savior, God the Son
