I need you much like the air I breathe, Lord
I need you to bring me up when I am down,
To bring me down when my feet have elevated beyond firm ground
I need you
I need you to comfort me
I need you to keep me
Lord be my shelter from the rain
I need you to keep me sane
When the world closes in on me
When my physical strength fails to keep my head held high
I need you
I need you to allow me into your bosom
And I need you to hold me there
I need you to receive my every care
I need you
I need you here and I need you there
There in the silence, and in the crowd
Over there with my noisy disappointments
And those ever screaming fears
I need you
I need you right here in the face of my failures
In the parts of me that feel unworthy of love and acceptance
I need you
Because this need requires my seed I submit my strength and my will
I receive you
With so much to be done, we must find the sacred lessons and thoughts that we keep for ourselves to strengthen us in times of trouble.
