Why Do I Need You Lord

O Lord When all mortals' love are tainted and momentary I seek the glory of Yours Pure and everlasting O Lord Show me the way to your divine love Replace the uncertainty that is filled in my aching heart With Your bountiful mercy and grace O Lord I don't need mortals' love as much as I need Yours My heart belongs to You And to You I shall return Poetry contest entry 'Why do I Need You Lord' Sponsored by James Edward Lee Sr
