Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm so tired of walking in my own ways,
Lord, I've failed to be in Your rest again today.
You saved me, gave me love, joy, and happiness,
But I strayed away, went right back to my mess.
Oh Lord, I know I was wrong to leave You,
Thinking I could do this all on my own, too.
Now I'm here, so weary and alone,
Lord, I want to come back home, I need Your throne.
[Chorus]
CHOIR:
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
LEAD:
I need You now.
[Verse 2]
I walked in my do's and don'ts, so blind to my fate,
Stopped looking to the Author, forgettin' my grace.
Oh Lord, I know I made a great mistake,
I've lost my way; I'm breaking, give me strength.
I need You, Lord; I need You deep inside,
Can't keep pretending, nowhere left to hide.
Take my hand, lead me back to the light,
I’m standing here, Lord, ready to fight.
[Chorus]
CHOIR:
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
LEAD:
I need You now.
[Bridge]
I'm running back to You; I can't live Without You,
Don't want religion; it's You, I need, Lord, true.
No more stray, no more shame, I want to reclaim,
Everything I lost when I turned away.
CHOIR:
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
LEAD:
Oh, whatever it takes, Lord, please hear my plea,
Forgive me, chastise me, restore me to Thee.
Anoint me, revive me; my spirit's so weak,
With every heartbeat, Lord, Your love I seek.
[Chorus]
CHOIR:
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
I need You, Lord, I need You now.
LEAD:
I need You now.
[Outro]
I need You now, desperate my soul's cry,
Embrace me, Lord, in You let me fly.
Rest my weary heart, cleanse my soul inside,
I need You, Lord, in You I will abide.
Lord, I’m tired, but in You, I’ll stand tall,
I testify Your love—it's the greatest of all.
I need You now!
