Lord I Need You

    C                                F                 G
Sometimes when life seems gentle and blessings flood my way,
  C                              Dm              G
I turn my gaze away from You and soon forget to pray.
    Am                 Dm         C               B
But when the sky grows darker and courage turns to fear,
   Em                  Am          F                G
My anxious voice cries upward with words you long to hear.


[Chorus]
        C                 F              C
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
          Dm      G         Am      G       C
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
        Am             Em             F            E
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
      Am     F    G           C
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.


[Verse 2]
      C          Am           F                G
Lord, help me to remember I'm weak but You are strong.
  C           Am                    Dm              G
I cannot sing apart from You, for Lord You are my song.
   Am                 Dm         C              B
Although I'm prone to wander and boast in all I do;
     Em                  Am        F           G
Lord keep my eyes turned upward so I depend on You.


[Chorus]
        C                 F              C
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
          Dm      G         Am      G       C
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
        Am             Em             F            E
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
      Am     F    G      E     Am
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
      Am     F    G           C
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
