Couplet 1

Lord I come I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart
You're the one that guides my heart

Refrain

Lord I need You oh I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Couplet 2

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

Refrain

Lord I need You oh I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Pont

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

Refrain

Lord I need You oh I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Tag

You're my one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You
