I thought I needed true love to fill the lonely times I thought maybe a song would heal this heart of mine I thought I need new friends to put away the past I thought the answer was good times, but the good times never last Nothin' took away the emptiness That I'd known for so long And nothin' gave me peace inside Because with all I'd done wrong CHORUS: I needed a savior, a savior To do what no one else could do I needed a savior, a savior Oh, Jesus, I need You It was rain in the desert A new day of hope You offered Your mercy To my desperate soul I can't believe I'm standin' here Forgiven and free I can't believe how far You'd go To give life to me CHORUS Now and forever, evermore You are my life, You are my Lord and Savior CHORUS
