I Need You Lyrics - Driven - Canton Spirituals

Verse 1 

I joined this group a long time ago 

traveling 'round the country doing a lot of shows 

then the Lord showed me I was doing it all wrong 

He told me to spread His word through all of my songs 

so im asking you to guide me... cant do this by myself 

I need you Jesus can't depend on nobody else 

Chorus 

I need you yes I do 

I need you yes I do 

Verse 2 

since I decided to make Jesus my choice 

the road hasn't been easy but he's kept me right on course 

so many times I felt like giving up 

but Lord you kept your arms around me and you covered me with your love 

Lord I just want to thank you for being so good to me 

you opened so many doors that I couldn't nearly see 

Chorus 

Verse 3 

I cast my cares upon the you 

I need you Jesus to see me through 

I cant make it by myself 

its just you and me Jesus I don't need nobody else 

this world we're living in has grown cold 

they're killing the young, and they're even killing the old 

Chorus (repeats until the end) 

(Ad lib) 

Just like a flower, needs the rain 

Just like a conductor, needs his train 

just like a highway, needs two lanes 

just like a window, needs a pane 

just like a carpenter, needs a hammer 

just like a little child, needs some manners 

like the sun, needs to shine 

I need you Jesus, I need you all the time
