Sometimes when life seems gentle and blessings flood my way,
I turn my gaze away from You and soon forget to pray.
But when the sky grows darker and courage turns to fear,
My anxious voice cries upward with words you long to hear.
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
Lord, help me to remember I'm weak but You are strong.
I cannot sing apart from You, for Lord You are my song.
Although I'm prone to wander and boast in all I do;
Lord keep my eyes turned upward so I depend on You.
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
This song was requested in a comment on the last one. I am very glad that Stephanie requested if I could find it.
It's been too long since I've sung it... I remember a few years ago when this song was my heart cry and literally my cry every day, as I was struggling, and searching, feeling very lost and it was around this time that I think my sister introduced me to the song, and I memorized it because I knew I desperately needed God... my heart was crying out because I NEEDED Him...
...But when the sky grows darker and courage turns to fear,
My anxious voice cries upward with words you long to hear.
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
Oh Father! I need you today! Whether trials come or cease, may I stay on my knees Oh Lord I need you!
Thank you so much for asking for the song Stephanie, cause I needed to be reminded of this song today.
