“In our mundane survival-of-the-fittest world, we are called to be strong. In God’s World, we are called to be weakly strong. The paradox is how much stronger we become living life God’s way.”

Falling down – knowing at last it's over
Hit the ground – all that I have to show for
All my pride is this bruise inside
That I have found

Lying here tangled up in Your mercy
And my fear, lessons that I am learning
Broken down into simple words
I need You now

Needing You is something new (when I am not strong like You)
Needing You is what I do (because I am not strong like You)

Keep me here – here in Your awesome Presence
Keep me clear – that I have no defenses
Take my heart strand by strand apart
Till I'm unwound

Kneeling here – shiny and new and broken
All my love feeling like just a token
Of my thanks – speechless trying to say
I need You now
