UNDONE GO AWAY

go away from me Lord
how can You look upon me
in Your presence i see my filthiness
and yet You reach out for me
go away from me Jesus
i am undone in Your love
my heart breaks at what it sees
inside of me
of what i see inside of me
how can the holy desire the sinful
every waking breath has been
spent on living me
the things i have seen
the places i have been
the wounds inflicted on me
sometimes at my own hands
go away me Lord
i am undone by You
yet You reach for me
to pull me into Your embrace
You call me beloved
and worthy of Your love
how am i worthy of Your love
what can a man say
what can a man do
it's all i can do not to shrink back
from the beauty contained in You
oh look at my hands Lord
see the sin they have done
see the hardness of my heart
the poverty of me
go away my Lord
go away
i am undone by You again
i am undone by You again

NEED

i need You Lord
in each moment of my life
i want You Lord
to lead and guide
i desire You Lord
more and more each day
i want to know You more
i want to experience You
in ways that leave me wanting more
how can one be content
yet want more
i want more of You
for today
for this moment
for right now
You Lord
just You
i need You Lord
more than i even know
teach me Lord
teach me
to be still and know that You are God
to know that You are God
a light to my path
a lamp to my feet
a joy to my heart
a song to my soul
a name that saves me
a God who knows my name
i need Your Lord
a love so pure and satisfying
my Lord my God my King
