I am frail, broken easily Without fail, my strength keeps failing me All alone, I'm powerless To lift myself from the pit that I am in (FIRST CHORUS) I need You, Jesus I need You, Jesus From Your throne in heaven's light Descended down into my broken life To right the wrong, to make a way To bear the load that I deserved to bear alone (SECOND CHORUS) I need You, Jesus I need You, Jesus I need clean hands I can't, You can I need You, Jesus On the cross on our behalf The Son of God bore the Father's wrath And by His blood, the scars and pain The perfect Son, took the fall and took our place (SECOND CHORUS) In His grace and unfailing love The risen King gave His hand to us To lift us up, from the pit And set our feet upon a rock that ever stands (SECOND CHORUS) On my own I've tried and tried To save myself, to fill my life But the more I do the more I find That I need You, I need You, I need You
