I have not my own goodness No I have no pure desire For you wrote into existence All the faith that you require I'm not leaning or supported I'm not helped up to stand But I'm carried by you Jesus Carried in your saving hands
How I need you, just to need you How I long to never for another
I could have strength, I could be bold But if I have not your stronghold Then I have nothing I have nothing at all
When my own heart condemns me You are greater than my heart
When the fear is overwhelming You are greater still by far
When the swells of doubt are rising And my faith's distant though Just one whisper from you Jesus Overcomes shouts from the dark
How I need you, just to need you How I long to never for another
I could have strength, I could be bold But if I have not your stronghold Then I have nothing I have nothing at all
If I could see you, if I could touch you now Still, I would not believe unless you taught me how
My hands are open My life is all poured out
Is this how you want me Lord, I'm waiting on you now Cause all understand across the earth Never could lead me to what I don't deserve I needed death, I needed birth Had I no longing, then how would I learn Still wanna see you, I wanna see you now Is this how you want me Lord, I'm waiting on you now 'Cause I could have strength, I could be bold But if I have not your stronghold Then I have nothing I have nothing at all
