I Need Your Rescue
Oh, I am drowning
In the sea of sin,
I cannot save myself;
Oh Lord I need your rescue!
Oh, I am drooping
From the mount of mercy,
I cannot lift myself;
O lord I need your rescue!
Give me a helping hand
In this sinking sand
Take me to a lovely land
O lord I need your rescue!
Oh I am dying,
In sickness and sorrow
I cannot heal myself,
O lord I need your rescue!
Oh, I am dosing,
In weariness and woe,
I cannot wake myself;
O lord I need your rescue!
Save me from my sin
Both without and within
Make me cute and clean
O lord I need your rescue!
Oh, I am declining
In value and virtue
I cannot raise myself
O lord I need your rescue!
Oh, I am decreasing
In strength and in health
I cannot fix myself
O lord I need your rescue!
I need your grace today
Show me your way
Keep me lord I pray
O lord I need your rescue!
