Savior Please

Josh Wilson is one of those new guys on the Christian Music scene that just has something a little bit different than the others. I think you'll like what you hear.

Honestly, if I can be candid with you, in my lifetime there have not been that many times where I had to completely rely on God’s power. I feel heretical to even share this song (and it’s lyrics) but in my heart this is what I feel. I rely on myself way too much and need to be reminded that I am not strong enough or tough enough. I can’t do it alone. I need God to hold on to me. It really hits me when Josh says, “I try to be good enough” because that’s where I find myself a lot of times. Trying to be “good enough” when I know very well that I can’t ever be “good” enough.

I could listen to this song over and over again just to admit my imperfection. I live as if I don’t need a Savior when in fact I desperately need him and his saving grace.

May these words penetrate your heart and cause you to fall to your knees and admit you need a Savior too.


Lyrics:
Savior, please take my hand
I work so hard, I live so fast
This life begins, and then it ends
And I do the best that I can, but I don't know how long I'll last

I try to be so tough
But I'm just not strong enough
I can't do this alone, God I need You to hold on to me
I try to be good enough
But I'm nothing without Your love
Savior, please keep saving me

Savior, please help me stand
I fall so hard, I fade so fast
Will You begin right where I end
And be the God of all I am because You're all I have

Hallelujah
Everything You are to me
Is everything I'll ever need
And I am learning to believe
That I don't have to prove a thing
'Cause You're the one who's saving me
