Lyrics:
VERSE 1 Lord, in these first few moments past the hour I wake Instill in me a sense of Thee in every breath I take For these important moments set my daily pace So may my focus be on You and on Your saving grace As I say good morning, Lord, calling out to You I ask you for Your guiding hand in everything I do May I walk in servitude and may my prayers be heard And may Your wisdom come to me while reading Your Word
VERSE 2 Father, I’m a sinner, so often do I stray I don’t deserve forgiveness, but I claim it as I pray Thank You for salvation purchased by Your Son Who gave His life that I might live, and that Your will be done I can’t help but marvel at this perfect gift Unworthy mortal, one I am, my praise to Thee I lift Teach me Your obedience and knowledge of Your ways So I can be of use to You all my earthly days
CHORUS And I know I need you Lord Yes, I know I need you Lord As the dawn is breaking and I kneel before Your throne I ask You to be with me once again If there’s one thing I have learned from all the years I’ve walked alone I’ve come to know, I need you, Lord
VERSE 3 I want to be a blessing to all the lives I touch I want Your Spirit’s guidance and the strength I need so much All I have to give You is my body, soul, and mind And as You work Your will in me, a sinner is refined You give Your love so freely and endlessly bestow The riches of Your kingdom, and to You, my life I owe In Jesus’ name, I say amen, hear this prayer of mine And work through me Your will today, the glory all be thine
