In our helpless state, in our longings
In every thought and all that we say
Lord Jesus, we need you, we need you
To guide and protect us, help us and show
The way we should go every day, in every way
You alone know the thoughts that we have
The way that we live and the way that we
Talk and all that we do should be a witness
To you, you are our Lord, our comfort and hope
Longing for peace and a world filled with love
Lord Jesus, rejoice to see the way we love you
In the things that we do and the way that we live
Lord Jesus, we need you and we look up to you
For strength for the day and peace in our land
Prone before you in prayer for your power
The way that you show how to live and rule over us
Lord Jesus, in our humble state may we be cleansed
Offering all that we have to be an offering in all that we are
Longing for you and believing that you are all that we need
Lord, we praise and worship before you
Grateful for all that you do for us, Jesus
Helping us be aware how much we need you
