And, I Need You Lord

The tired that I'm feeling
is closing in fast.
The pain,... too much to bare,
the wounds,... too bloody to share,
and sometimes, fighting the enemy,
is way too much to dare.

And, I need you Lord!
Your Comfort!
Your Courage!
Your Strength!

Come into me.  
I'm empty.
Battle through me.  
I'm weak.
Because, without you, Lord,
my destiny is bleak.
And, I need you Lord!

With your grace,
I'll no longer live my history.
Because you'll show me straight facts,
and leave out the contradictory.
I'll have no need to worry,
about the devil and his trickery.
Because with your love
and your grace,
I know I'll have the victory!

And, I need you Lord!
Yes, I need you Lord!
