1. I was fading,
I was broken down,
Out on my own.
I was running,
I was burning out
With nowhere to go.
But then He came, and
He called me by my name and
Said He knows all my pain and
Feels it with me.
Now I’m flying,
No more hopelessly crying.
His perfect love is so blinding.
Now I can see.
[Chorus]
Just like I need the breath I’m breathing,
I need Him.
He’s the only reason I’m alive.
I can’t even count the reasons
I need Him.
He’s the one that sets my soul on fire.
He’s the love that I feel when I’m lonely.
He’s the hope that I need when it’s stolen.
I’ll never leave him,
Cause I need Him.
I need Him.
2. Like a pure love
Flowing through my soul,
My heart is on fire.
He has saved me.
He has me made me whole.
I am alive.
Cause He came, and
He called me by my name and
Said He knows all my pain and
Feels it with me.
Now I’m flying,
No more hopelessly crying.
His perfect love is so blinding.
Now I can see.
[Chorus]
Just like I need the breath I’m breathing,
I need Him.
He’s the only reason I’m alive.
I can’t even count the reasons
I need Him.
He’s the one that sets my soul on fire.
He’s the love that I feel when I’m lonely.
He’s the hope that I need when it’s stolen.
I’ll never leave him,
Cause I need Him.
I need Him.
