My Need is You

My Need is You

When others darken my path,

My need is You;

When I am chastised for

Who I am,

My need is You; 

When I am lost,

My need is You;

When I am shamed,

My need is You;

When I ponder Your Name,

My need is You;

When others explode,

You are My Calm;

When I can't bear my load,

You are my support;

When I feel damaged,

You are My Healer;

When humans fail me,

I know you are Divine;

When I lack purpose,

My home is Thine;

When I rise, You are My Light;

When I need rest, You provide the night;

When I'm alone

I need You Still;

Fill me with Grace

For every hill;

Humans my shelter

Can never be,

As I sit...just at Your feet;

When I am depressed,

When I am blue,

It is then I know

I need You.
