Lord, I Need You.

Sometimes when life seems gentle and blessings flood my way,
I turn my gaze away from You and soon forget to pray.
But when the sky grows darker and courage turns to fear,
My anxious voice cries upward with words you long to hear.

Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.

Lord, help me to remember I'm weak but You are strong.
I cannot sing apart from You, for Lord You are my song.
Although I'm prone to wander and boast in all I do;
Lord keep my eyes turned upward so I depend on You.

Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.


I think I blogged these lyrics before, yep. It's a hymn I always end up turning to when I feel just like how I do at this very moment. In this life, we won't forget what every pain has caused us, we just learn how to grow out of it and learn. Life as we know it, is ineffaceable, along with all the tests and trials we go through. Maybe sometimes we don't need someone to tell us right from wrong, because during those times we know exactly where the problem lies, we just... don't know what to do from there. For me, I think I can never be free from these demons solely by myself. I need my dearest Heavenly Father. So I knew it all along, I just let my sinful nature blind me from witnessing my iniquities and was too stubborn to cry out for help. For God's help.

But I know, I need You Lord. Because I've experienced how well things work out for me without You- bitter and daunting.
