"I NEED YOU"

Verse 1
Though I don't deserve Your love,
You're wonderful to me.
Your mercy is as great as the heavens,
Your forgiveness is bigger than the sea.
Yet some may wonder what makes me
Seek You the way I do.
When there are so many pathways,
Why do I follow You?

Chorus
I need You more than flowers need the rain,
I would go insane without Your tender love.
I need You with me every day.
There are no words to say how much You mean to me.
Lord, I need You.

[I need You.] [I need You.]
[I need You.] [I need You.]

Verse 2
When I hear Your sweet voice say
You'll never leave my side,
A joy wells up within my soul
That I don't want to hide.
So, I sing praises unto You,
And glorify Your name.
I trust You with the future;
My life is in Your hands.

Chorus
I need You more than flowers need the rain,
I would go insane without Your tender love.
I need You with me every day.
There are no words to say how much You mean to me.

Bridge
I know I can't make it on my own.
I need someone beside me who is strong.
I don't even know which way to go or what to do.
Jesus, I'd be lost without You.

Chorus
I need You more than flowers need the rain,
I would go insane without Your tender love.
I need You with me every day.
There are no words to say how much You mean to me.
Lord, I need You.

[I need You.] Lord, I need You.
[I need You.] [I need You.]
Lord, I long to serve Your love.
[I need You.]
You're wonderful to me.
[I need You.]
[I need You.]
