If I Ever Needed Grace

If I Ever Needed Grace - Jimmy Needham

It still feels like yesterday

A lifetime of empty days

My hungry heart was desperate for a meal

I feasted on the Bread of Life

Forgiveness pierced me like a knife

Your breath filled up my lungs and I could feel

I was broke and all I could say was

If I ever needed grace it's now

You are strong when I am weak somehow

I am weak enough to see

I need You to cover me

If I ever needed grace it's now

I met the woman of my dreams

Wanted to give her everything

Then fear came like a thief in the night

But my journal pages prophesy

That one day I'd make her my bride

Soon my best friend was wearing white

With our lives ahead all I could say was

If I ever needed grace it's now

You are strong when I am weak somehow

I am weak enough to see

I need You to cover me

If I ever needed grace it's now

In every joy and pain

Whatever comes my way

God I need Your grace

Nine short months 'til she arrived

Little hands and lions eyes

And I'm so scared I don't have what it takes

But I hear Your voice "Son lean on me "

Father give me eyes to see

All I need's the power of Your name

If I ever needed grace it's now

You are strong when I am weak somehow

I am weak enough to see

I need You to cover me

If I ever needed grace oh

If I ever needed grace

If I ever needed grace it's now
