In You Alone
a cry for help
in the desert - 2/3/07
(from Doug Perry)
In You alone.
In You alone.
There is no other hiding place.
I have no safety, I have no home.
In You alone is peace. In You
alone is rest.
There is no safe place. In You
alone I rest.
I've sought my place, I've tried
it all, I've wandered all around.
There is no rest, there is no
peace, except in Your loving arms.
I want no other, All have failed
me. There is no one but You.
Please, Father, hide me. Please,
Father, set me in Your tower.
Wrap Your arms around me, cocoon
me in Your love.
There is no place, there's
nowhere, there's no hope, outside of Your arms.
I am Yours, I want no other, I am
Yours. Hold me tight.
I am Yours, I want no other, I am
Yours, Hold me tight.
Please Abba, I want no other, I
am Yours. Hold me tight.
In you I trust, in You I rest, I
have no peace but thine.
My eyes have failed, my hands
have failed, my mind is good for naught.
My friends have gone, my family
seeks my life, no man stands firm.
But in You I trust, in You I
rest, please hold me tight.
Please Father, please hold my hand.
Please rub my head and tell me
that it will all be OK.
Please Abba, please draw me close.
Please heal my heart and fill my
cup full of You.
Please Lord, please hug me tight,
Please put it all back the way
You wanted it all along.
Whatever it takes, whatever it
costs, wash me clean,
Purge me, cleanse me, purify my heart.
I am dark with mud and dirt and blood.
I'm a man of unclean lips amongst
an unclean people.
Touch a coal from Your altar to
my tongue,
That I may speak only Your pure Truth
And sing only your praises with
all my heart.
Have Your way with me and cleanse
this vessel.
I am Yours, I want no other, I am
Yours hold me tight.
I am Yours, I want no other, I am
Yours, Hold me tight.
Please Abba, I want no other, I
am Yours, hold me tight.
