Chorus:
I need You
for everything,
yeah.
I see You
are everything.
Ooh,
sometimes I try to take over,
don't want to give You control, but
Lord, I need You
for everything,
yeah yeah.

Verse 1 (Best):
I've made a mess.
I'm ashamed and to blame for this great comess.
Lord, I thought I could rule,
but the Boss, it is You.
I've done more just to prove
this is major stress.
Satan just
want me to lean on my own strength,
and keep You at pole's length,
and keep up the protest,
but I don't make my heart beat in my own chest,
so I surrender to Jesus, Who knows Best.
I'm giving myself away,
'cause this is unhealthy.
To You I cry today,
'cause I cannot help me.
You're the Potter. I'm the clay. I did not make myself,
so to achieve purpose in this life,
I must admit and accept that I...

Verse 2 (Ramsey):
It's tiring
to try to give
my life what it's
requiring
of me.
I cease
and decrease.
You increase,
'cause my life is a crease
due for ironing.
So, I run into the Name of the Master,
a haven where I can be safe from disaster.
Jesus, I gave You the matter.
My faith's in Your grace, not in fate nor in Karma.
You're the King of my life,
and I am Your servant,
and I won't try to hide
that for You I am yearning.
You're the Potter. I'm the clay. I did not make myself,
so to achieve purpose in this life,
I must admit and accept that I...

Bridge:
[Lord, I need Thee, oh, I need Thee.]
I need You everywhere I go.
You alone can bear my load.
Help me, Lord.
[Lord, I need Thee, oh, I need Thee.]
I cyah live life on the other side.
It don't have any life on the other side.
Lord, me no bother try,
no.
[Lord, I need Thee, oh, I need Thee.]
I'm broken humanity,
in total depravity.
Oh Father, can't You see?
[Lord, I need Thee, oh, I need Thee.]
Lord I beg and plead
that You never leave.
If my legs should flee,
You'd be getting me
right back to You.
Father, it's You we're depending on
to get our melodies right,
and after we sing this song,
Lord, we need You in real life.
You're the Potter. I'm the clay. I did not make myself,
so to achieve purpose in this life,
I... I... I... I... I!
