How can I keep on like this?
All of Your words and will
I seem to miss.
Maybe I just close my eyes,
But even still.
How can I make my gaze rise?
I need to look up,
I'm not sure I can,
How could I?
How could I look up?
I don't know if I can,
I don't want to lie.
At the same time,
However,
I know how I need,
I need You God,
Constant in all time,
I need You to lead.
On my own,
How could I?
I could never,
But with You, God,
Light can be grown,
From the dark deep,
So here, by and by,
Let seeds be sown deep.
For how could I do anything,
Aside from You?
I'd love to be,
A vessel of Your heart, full of love.
But I won't amount to anything,
Without You.
It's not me.
For none but You could make me in love.
How I need Your love,
Help me look above.
