Story behind the song
If we are truly honest with ourselves we will admit that we aren't perfect. We all know that we haven't lived up to our own standards let alone God's. It's also true however, that we can ask God to forgive us. He will do that when we humbly and apologetically come to Him believing that Jesus died to pay the price for all the bad we've done in our lives. He loves us that much. He loved you enough to die for you.
Lyrics
Simple Prayer Written By: Alan C. Duncan Produced By: Alan C. Duncan Recorded By: Eddie Tomecko This is a prayer of a sorry and repentant heart. Just listen. Hook: I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need you, I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need you, I need you Lord. I never thought I’d utter the phrase-utter your name or utter your praise. But now I feel this deepening pain- sweeping my frame running deep in my veins. And it’s like I know that I’m grieving you but I never really usually be heeding you. But something’s changed. It’s a different game. I got sorrow in my heart now something’s strange Lord. I have sinned and I’ve gone astray. And I know that I’ve turned to...my own way. It’s wrong I know. I got long to go and I’m about to turn my back on all I’ve known, and turn to you. Turn from my life of sin. Turn from the strife that my life’s been in. But sometimes it’s so hard to admit I’ve been wrong and with pride in my life to forget I’m not strong. Now I know I’m weak-can’t save myself. I believe you’re the One who can save from hell. And I know I need it [I] feel so defeated. Last night I saw a Bible and I chose to read it. I got sick you see? -Cut to quick with me, and I guess that you could say that it convicted me. And it said to seek you while you may be found, so in that case God I’ma put my face to ground-heard your grace abounds. Take me now. All this sin in my life simply takes me down. I’m a wayward soul; do away with cold. I need your warmth God, make me whole. Cuz I’m dirty within; dirty with sin; wanna trust your Son God cuz I heard that He wins. But I don’t deserve your grace at all but something tells me I should still place this call. So I humbly come and I humbly bow. Give me grace to pray though I’m stumbling now. Keep me standing up and being man enough to surrender to you God see my hands be up. I’m waving white flags too, cuz my life lacks you and I heard that you can heal all of life’s blacks-blue. And I know you can. I trust in you. Yeah Lord I trust in you. Hook: I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need you, I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need you, I need you Lord. I’m broken hearted and I’m crushed in spirit but I keep on praying cuz I trust you hear it. Have mercy please where’s the mercy seat? Is it really true God that you’re mercy’s free? See that’s hard to fathom cuz I’m guilty Lord did a lot of dirt don’t ya see I’m filthy Lord? I deserve your wrath cuz I observed your path but I never walked on it, that hurts me bad. Cuz I wasted time and I wasted years and I hurt you God and I tasted tears. But now I know there’s a sacrifice. It’s your Son Christ and He gave His life. He paid the price so that He could make me right. I was blind to the Truth but He gave me sight. Oh, God oh God how could you take my pain. Take my sin and give Christ blame. Oh, why? Oh why? I don’t seem to understand. I’m the one you want. I’m the guilty man. I’m the one who’s bad He’s the One they nabbed I’m One with guilt but He’s the One they grabbed. I’m the one who lied. He’s the One they tried. I’m the sinner here but He’s the One that died. See I’m the crook and I’m the cheat but He they took and He they beat. Lord I’m the one who’s lusted for chicks, but He’s the One they busted with sticks, busted His lips and they thrust Him with whips. Any doubts that I got now must be dismissed. In light of this love. The love that you gave. The love that can save cause you loved to the grave. Now Jesus Christ thanks for coming here and being a man. Though you’re equal with God you still heeded His plan. Thanks for being the Lamb. Taking steel in your hands and for saving all believers so we’d be in your fam. Now I love you Lord, and I trust in you. You rose Lord. I trust in you Hook: I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need you, I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you Lord. I need you, I need yo
