Need

Need By: Kristin McLeod

  Nothing could tear us apart,
  oh save me from myself.

  When I don't feel you,
  My faith is kindled
  and growing strong.

  This fire is building up...
  inside of me,
  Waiting to spill out over the earth.

  People broken, wounded, hiding,
  underneath their facade.
  Self reliance is what cripples,
  and the voice that lies to us.

  We need God, we want God,
  but don't know it yet.

  When will we learn, what do we
  need to prick us?
  Out of this state of complacency?

  I had a taste a bite of your love,
  Your presence absorbs my soul,
  till I am ruined for ordinary things.

  Strip me of vanity and pride,
  of hindered prayers and wishful thinking.
  Of a heart that wanders and drifts,
  from the only One who can fill it.

  GOD we need you, we want you,
  when will we learn?
