Lord, I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
And without you I fall apart
You're the one that guides my heart
Lord, I need you, oh, I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need you

Where sin runs deep your grace is more
Where grace is found is where you are
And where you are, lord, I am free
Holiness is christ in me
Lord, I need you, oh, I need you
Every hour I need you
You're my one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need you

So teach my song to rise to you
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on you
Jesus, you're my hope and stay

Lord, I need you, oh, I need you
Every hour I need you
You're my one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need you
You're my one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need you
My Jesus, lord I need you
