Rescue me Jesus

Rescue me Jesus

Rescue me Jesus

From the brokenness

From the hopelessness I feel

I feel black and crushed inside

Full of shame and guilt

And feelings I can’t describe

I don’t know where to go and

I don’t know what to do

So I cry out to you

Rescue me Jesus

You are my only hope

But I feel so far from you

I don’t know how to get back

I’ve tried many times to avoid this road

But it seems I always end up back here

Always lost, always broken, always unfixable

And I know you are the answer

And I know I can make it through today

But what about tomorrow?

The bleakness is unending and uncaring

And I don’t want to face it

So please You are my only hope

Hold me up Jesus

As I cannot stand on my own

Hold me and don’t let me go

For I need you

I need you to love me

To fill me up

To make me whole

And I can’t make it through today

Not without you

For you are my only hope

And I know you will rescue me
