Please take this weight that's on my chest
I'm barely breathing both my knees are on the ground
I'm putting all my hope in You
I'm singing praises 'til my lungs are giving out
So break these chains they're holding me
I want to run to You but I have been afraid
Oh give me courage, give me strength
I want to stand for You but I feel my heart fail
I need You
You're the force of my desire
I need You
You're my spirit and my fire
I've been choosing all my friends
I've been trying to play pretend but it didn't work
There were places that You'd go
I wouldn't follow I was scared of getting hurt
But what if Jesus took the lead
He never looked away he chose to give it all
I wish that I was more like him
And i'll be trying 'til the day I leave it all
But I need You
You're the force of my desire
I need You
You're my spirit and my fire
I need You
You're the force of my desire
I need You
You're my spirit and my fire
