I thought I needed true love to fill the lonely times

I thought maybe a song would heal this heart of mine

Thought I needed new friends to put away the past

I thought the answer was good times, but the good times never last

Nothin' took away the emptiness

That I'd known for so long

And nothing gave me peace inside

Because with all I'd done wrong

I needed a Savior, a Savior

To do what no one else could do

I needed a Savior, a Savior

Oh, Jesus, I needed You

It was rain in the desert

A new day of hope

You offered Your mercy

To my desperate soul

I can't believe I'm standin' here

Forgiven and free

I can't believe how far You'd go

To give life to me

I needed a Savior, a Savior

To do what no one else could do

I needed a Savior, a Savior

Oh, Jesus, I needed You

Now and forever, (now and for) evermore

You are my life, You are my Lord

And Savior, (Oh, Savior) Savior

You do what no one else could do

I needed a Savior, a Savior

Oh, Jesus, I needed You

Savior, Savior

To do what no one else could do

I needed a Savior, a Savior

Oh, Jesus, I needed You

I needed you

Oh, Jesus, I needed You
