Verse 1a
O I need Your love
in this shadowed place;
I can’t get enough
of Your sunlight on my face.

Verse 1b
When it’s cold and dark,
or I’m far from home,
You are in my heart
and I never walk alone.

Chorus
And just like a tree planted by a stream,
thirsty for a drink of Your love,
I can’t face a day
without some time to pray;
I sing this song to say I need Your love.

Verse 2a
I’m a tiny child, but when I’m with You
I will not grow tired,
‘cause there’s nothing You can’t do.

Verse 2b
Your love makes me strong
though I’m small and weak,
And the whole day long
You’ll speak through me when I speak.

Verse 3a
You gave all for me
though I’d curse Your name;
On that bitter tree,
Lord, You suffered for my shame.

Verse 3b
How can I thank You?
Your love paid my way.
All that I can do
is live for You ev’ry day.
