Description

Lyrics-
V1:
Jesus I need you now,
I can see no way out,
I cannot stand beneath this weight.
My strength is not enough,
Help me to trust your love,
Desparate I lean on you for grace!

Chorus:

Be the ground beneath my feet
When I must walk but I can’t see
Be the air inside my lungs
When I can’t breathe
Be the blood inside my veins,
When my heart won’t seem to beat,
Hold me God, be my peace.

V2
Spirit to You I fly,
all of my tears run dry
Be my voice when I can’t speak
Feebly I cry for help
Faded and overwhelmed
Almighty God please hear my plea!

V3:

Father I know your here,
even through all my fear,
My only hope is found in You
Time and again you’ve shown
I’ve never been alone
You are the Faithful and the True!

Jesus I need you now,

I cannot stand beneath this weight.
My strength is not enough,
Help me to trust your love,
Desperate I lean on you for grace!

Be the ground beneath my feet
When I must walk but I can’t see
Be the air inside my lungs
When I can’t breathe
Be the blood inside my veins,
When my heart won’t seem to beat,
Hold me God, be my peace.

Spirit to You I fly,
all of my tears run dry
Be my voice when I can’t speak
Feebly I cry for help
Faded and overwhelmed
Almighty God please hear my plea!

Father I know you’re here,
even through all my fear,
My only hope is found in You
Time and again you’ve shown
I’ve never been alone
You are the Faithful and the True!
