The Jesus I Need

She was desperate

Down to her last hope

Now she crawls on her hands and her knees

Through a crowd on a dusty road



If she could touch Him

She knew He could make her well

Reaching and straining

She touched His garment, healing fell



And this is the Jesus I want

Friend of the broken and weak

What He did for her

I know He'll do for me



This is the Jesus I want

Giver of life and peace

Still today He's reaching out to you and me

This is the Jesus I need



Tormented

He lost his mind

There was nothing but evil and anguish

There in those cold, dark eyes



But the day would come

Everyone would know

That the words of this Jesus

Could set free the captive and make them whole



And this is the Jesus I want

Friend of the broken and weak

What He did for him

I know He'll do for me



This is the Jesus I want

Giver of life and peace

Still today He's reaching out to you and me

This is the Jesus I need



More than a story book fable

He is alive and He's able

To rescue anyone who believes



And this is the Jesus I want

Friend of the broken and weak

And what He did for them

I know He'll do for you and me



This is the Jesus I want

Giver of life and peace

And still today He's reaching out to you and me

This is the Jesus I need, this is the Jesus I need



Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him

How I proved Him more and more

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him

How I proved Him more and more
