Verse 1

My heart is restless in me

 My wings are all worn out

I'm walking in the wilderness

 And I cannot get out

I need You, oh I need You

 Blessed Savior come

I need You, oh I need You

 Fill the every longing of my soul

Chorus

Oh how I need You Lord

 I need Your perfect word

With tearful eyes I see

 The sin that I afford

I need to weep and pray

 For all the thousand ways

That I have failed You just today

Verse 2

And my bed is soaked with sadness

 My sadness has no end

A downward spiral of despair

 That I keep falling in

I need You, oh I need You

 To You my soul shall fly

I need You, oh I need You

 Yahweh how I love you more than life

(Chorus)

Bridge

Your silence is like death to me

 So won't You hear my desperate plea

Verse 3

Today my soul is soaring

 Way over mountains high

Though I can see the valleys

 They are all just passing by

It's not that I am stronger

 Look at my feeble wings

But I've been lifted higher

 Yahweh's lifted me in His own strength

Chorus

Oh how I love You Lord

 I love your perfect word

With tearful eyes I see

 The God who always will endure

Now I will celebrate

 For all the thousand ways

That you have shown me grace

 And made my heart in grace to stay

 You made my heart in grace to stay

 Lord, make my heart in grace to stay

I need You, oh I need You
