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.
