By Your Name Lyrics - Singles - Card Michael

Michael Card 

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
