A song about rekindling spiritual relationship. Somebody once told me, "If God seems distant, guess who moved?" Grace is always ready to welcome us home.

Story behind the song
This song was heartfelt cry for a return to a closer walk with my God and an acknowledgment that I had walked away from the most important relationship of my life.
Lyrics
I Need You
Adrian J Pratt 1977
Reach out and take Your hand, And say please lead me
I feel like I'm losing my way, So please don't leave me
I'm stumbling along, Trying to find some light
I want to feel Your hand in mine,
Then it'll be allright
Seems so long, Since I sat down and talked with You
And I guess this song, Is a way of saying I need You
I've treated you wrong, I turned my back on Your face
I tried to shut You out of my life,
And that's not right
And You know I need Your love
'Cos You are my life, You're everything I have
You've filled me with Your music
You've given me Your love
And I know more than anything I need You
And I know more than anything I need to love You.
So lead me on, Keep working out Your purpose out within me
And when I do wrong, Remind me that You'll forgive me
You never fail, Though I grow weak
You're always there to help me along
You are my song
Though I may feel lonely, Really I'm never alone
And when I walk out on You,
You're always ready to have me back home
You never change, But I hope I will
I need to be more like You, Every day
That's the only way
And You know I need Your love
'Cos You are my life, You're everything I have
You've filled me with Your music
You've given me Your love
And I know more than anything I need You
And I know more than anything I need to love You.
