lyrics

“Empty Desperate Man”

Verse 1:
Lord, seems like only yesterday I gave my heart away,
To You, And I was so true,
And Lord, I don't understand just why,
I turned away my eyes, Lord I've been such a fool!

Chorus:
And Lord I'm a empty desperate man, Won't You help me Lord, You can!
Oh I need You Lord, And I surrender,
Lord on my knees I humbly bow, And I'm asking You somehow,
Oh I need You Lord, I surrender all to You.

Verse 2:
Lord I remember how it was when You were my first love,
And You were my closest Friend,
And now my heart is cold and dry,
And I feel like I will die if I don't touch You again!

Bridge:
You are all that I desire, Your everything I need,
And You can wash away my sins, Restore Your joy in me!
Lord I surrender all to you,

Verse 3:
Lord, won't You take me as I am, I yield my life into Your hands,
Oh I need You Lord and I surrender,
Lord, I can't make it on my own,
Won't You melt this heart of stone,
Oh I need You Lord, I surrender all to You,

Ending Tags:
Oh I need You Lord, I surrender all to You,
I'm giving up everything!
Oh I need You Lord, I surrender all to You.
