  • How I need you

    Jesus, how I need you.
    Without you, I'd fall to pieces
    Already dashed to bits,
    I'd shatter if you weren't holding me together

    You wanted me to love you first,
    And I chose to love myself
    I chose to treasure the gifts you gave
    Instead of your most precious self.

    Jesus, how I need you!
    Your blood is the only refuge
    From the sting of judgment
    And the scourge of shame

    For sins that I have wrought and blossomed.

    And you, my only joy today
    Nothing to distract.
    When my eyes leave you,
    I am utterly lost

    Finally, you showed me your face...
    Finally, I start to see
    How I need you
    How I always needed you.

    How I always will need you, my Lord...
