I need you

Verse 1

I remember when I was younger,

Thought the whole world turned away

Every word felt like a hammer,

Every shout just made me break

I cried alone inside my bedroom,

Wondered if I mattered at all

Asked myself if life would notice

If I wasn’t here at all

Pre-Chorus

Staring at my own reflection,

Tears falling to the floor

I didn’t know You were still listening

When my heart was at war

Chorus

God, I need You

I feel empty inside

I’ve been carrying this hurt for so long

I don’t know why

God, I need You

When I’m weak, when I’m tired

When the world feels heavy on my soul

God, I need You tonight

Verse 2

I remember holding the weight

Of thoughts I couldn’t outrun

Crying out in silent desperation

Wondering if I should be done

But even in the darkest moment

When I couldn’t see Your face

You were standing in the shadows

Giving me unearned grace

Chorus

God, I need You

I feel empty inside

I’ve been searching for a reason

Just to stay alive

God, I need You

Hear my broken cry

When I have nothing left to give

God, I need You tonight

Bridge

You were there when I was crying

You were there when I should’ve died

You were there when I felt forgotten

You were there the whole time

Every scar, every moment

Every breath You let me keep

Is proof You’re not done with me

Even when I’m weak

Final Chorus

God, I need You

I still feel empty inside

But You’re filling every broken place

One day at a time

God, I need You

I lift my hands, I surrender my pride

You saved my life when I couldn’t save myself

God, I need You—

Forever in my life

Outro

I’m still here…

Because You are.
