You by Kalikala SmithYou,
are the One that I long for.
You,
are the One that I need.
You,
are the rock of my salvation,
and to You I come on my knees.
All the times that I've faltered.
All the times that I've cried.
All the tears that I've wasted,
have all been thrown aside.
Help me break down these walls.
Break my fall and love me.
For I am your child,
and I need Your guidance,
to help me now.
Grant me power,
to live in Your love again.
You,
are my strength when I am weak.
You,
are the truth that I seek.
You,
are my presence of glory.
And to You I come on my knees.
All the times that I've crumbled.
All the times that I've lied.
All the fears that I've lived in,
have all been thrown aside.
Help me know that You are near.
Break my fear and love me.
For I am Your child,
and I need Your guidance,
to help me now.
Grant me power,
to live in Your love again.
