I Need You Jesus

I Need You Jesus!

Jesus, I come before you once again.
I‘ve been “tripped up” by another sin.

This sin seems like it won’t let go of me.
I’ve tried so hard…  I want to be FREE!

I confess before you lord my sinful ways.
I lift up my hands in humbleness and praise!

I ask that you would remove this from me!
I need your grace!  Please forgive me!

Thank you dear Lord for answering my cry…
I know that only you can totally satisfy!

You give a peace, that’s beyond 
all understanding...
To the bumpy roads of life,
 you give a “soft landing.”

You provide a hope when 
none to be found.
And there to help, when life comes
 “crashing down.”

Thank you my Lord,
 for doing all of this and more!
You’re precious and what life
 is worth living for!

You’ve come and brought
 a wondrous salvation!
In you, I’m free and now a
 brand new creation!
