I just need U. Lyrics
Uh, last night put the heavy on me
Woke up and I'm feeling lonely
This world gotta a way of showing me (Showing me)
Some days it'll lift you up, some days it'll call your bluff
Man, most of my days I ain't got enough
[Pre-Chorus]
And all I know
Is You're my only hope (Woo)
[Chorus]
When I'm up, when I'm down (Uh-huh)
When the wolves come around (Tell me)
When my feet hit the ground
I just need, I just need You
On my darkest days (Uh-huh)
When I'm losing faith (Tell me)
No, it ain't gon' change
I just need, I just need You
Lord, I need You
Yeah, I just need You
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me
Thy rod and thy staff
They comfort me when I'm beat down, broken
Hold my heart when it's split right wide open
Turn these eyes to my sole protector
And break the will of this born defector
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause all I know, all I know
Is You're my only hope
[Chorus]
When I'm up, when I'm down (Uh-huh)
When the wolves come around (Tell me)
When my feet hit the ground
I just need, I just need You
On my darkest days (Uh-huh)
When I'm losing faith (Tell me)
No, it ain't gon' change
I just need, I just need You
Lord, I need You
Yeah, I just need You
[Bridge]
When You pull me closer, I come to life
When You pull me closer, I come to life
When You pull me closer, I come to life
When You pull me closer, I come to life
When I'm up, when I'm down
When my feet hit the ground
On my darkest days
No, it ain't gon' change
Oh Lord, I need You
[Chorus]
When I'm up, when I'm down (Oh, oh)
When the wolves come around (Oh, oh)
When my feet hit the ground
Yeah, I need, I need, I need, I need You
On my darkest days (Oh, oh)
When I'm losing faith (Oh, oh)
No, it ain't gon' change
Ain't no way this thing gon' change, it's You
[Outro]
I need, it's You, I need
On my darkest days
When I'm losing faith
I need You, I need, it's You, I need
Every single day, every breath I take
I need You, I need You

It feels so great to be back in the studio again working passionately on songs that will hopefully meet people right where they are. “I just need You.” is where I land time and again after my futile attempts to handle life on my own. I AM a born defector learning everyday that the sweetest place and the only RIGHT place for me, is turning back and falling into the arms of a loving God. I was honored to write it with my homies Blake NeeSmith and Bryan Fowler. Produced by Bryan Fowler and me. To God be the glory.
