I need You

Everywhere I turn, something comes.
Everywhere I look, a new trouble.
I need You, I need You beside of me.
Things are coming, things that are hard.
I'm scared, I'm shrinking away.

God, You know I need You now,
You know I'm scared.
The times are tough, things are hard.
God, I need You here.

The evil one is telling me I can't.
I'm useless, says he.
Stay home, you can't do it.
This fear he has put in my heart,
it eats me from the inside out.
I'm scared.

God, You know I need You now,
You know I'm scared.
The times are tough, things are hard.
God, I need You here.

Take this fear, hide it away.
Help me, dear God, help me put it away.
Turn my focus, turn it from fear and insecurity.
Turn it towards You and Your mission for me.
Help me see, help me walk.
Help me closer to You.
I need You here beside of me.

God, You know I need You now,
You know I'm scared.
The times are tough, things are hard.
God, I need You here.

Oh God, You see my fears,
and You know my thoughts.
But You come and hide them from view.
God, You lift me out of my fears
and show me Your will.
I put them behind me and look to You.

Now all I see is Your will for me!
I know You will stay with me.

God, You knew I needed You, and still do.
You knew I was scared, and carried me through.
The times were tough, and things were hard,
But You knew and helped me through.

I needed You, and You heard my prayer.
I needed You, and You helped me through.
I needed You, and You were there.
