Need Him



You're on your highest peak of life
And everything's just fine
You think you've finally figured out
Life's ever changing design
Until the peaks all disappear 
Amid the clouds of doubt
You're plunged into the valley 
And you think there's no way out


We need Him in the desert, we need Him in the rain
We need Him when our hopes and dreams have gone up into flames
We need Him in our highs, we need Him in our lows
We need Him all the time, because He's the one who knows


It's been a while since He came
And turned your life around
The valley's gone and now you think
You're fine, 'cause grace abounds
You've slipped back to your old ways
You're trying to run your life
You forgot the One who saved you 
From your guilt and strife


We need Him in the desert, we need Him in the rain
We need Him when our hopes and dreams have gone up into flames
We need Him in our highs, we need Him in our lows
We need Him all the time, because He's the one who knows


Life is going well for you
Since He rescued you again
You're on the mend, and life is good
'Cause you're forgiven and free of sin
But when you're tempted to forget
That you can't control it all
His words remind you of the time
When you first understood and saw
That

It's easy to forget
That we can't save ourselves
We get prideful and we think
We've got it all somehow
But when life starts to slip
Out of our control
We realize all too late
That we don't know it all


We need Him
We need Him all the time
I need Him
I need Him all the time
You need Him
You need Him all the time


We need Him in the desert, we need Him in the rain
We need Him when our hopes and dreams have gone up into flames
We need Him in our highs, we need Him in our lows
We need Him all the time, because He's the one who knows
That


We need Him
We need Him all the time
I need Him
I need Him all the time
You need Him
You need Him all the time
We need Him
We need Him all the time

Just a little reminder to not forget that we need Him, every second of every day- because we all forget. I do. You do. We all do. And we need Him. I do. You do. We all do. May we all seek to grow closer and want to need Him every day! ♥

  9. "We need Him in our highs, we need Him in our lows" <3 We need Him whether we know it and want it or not, but as you said, may we seek to "want to need Him every day."
