Michael Card - By Your Name lyrics

I failed again to make the mark

Lost my way once more

I tried to do it by myself

Like so many times before

And now again I turn to You

I'm hungry and confused

By now my strength's dissolved away

And I feel like I've been used

Chorus

If You leave me to myself oh Lord

It will always be the same

It's You who'll have to hold my hand

And protect me by Your name

It's You who'll have to hold my hand

And protect me by Your name

I turn and find You there for me

You've been waiting all along

The open arms, the sweet relief

And You whisper me a song

At times like these I ask myself

How could I have ever strayed

And forgotten all You've given me

And lost sight of what You paid

Chorus

It's You who'll have to hold my hand

And protect me by Your name
