Matt Maher - All The People Said Amen

DAY 5 OF 7

## Lord, I Need You "We are born helpless. As soon as we are fully conscious we discover loneliness. We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves." -CS Lewis "The Four Loves" For the past 19 months, the biggest cross in my life has been the most unlikely, that being my 19-month-old son. His utter dependence on his parents is a source of much conviction for me, for I wish I had the same level of honesty. I know rationally in my mind that the love of God and the subsequent grace that flows from it are all I need, yet I struggle with proclaiming that truth to myself in my life. I had the privilege of writing this song with several other gifted worship leaders at Passion City Church. We were trying to write a prayer that a college student could pray in their dorm room after the lights of a conference have faded and they're no longer surrounded by a stadium full of their peers. Where it's just you, your heart, God and your Bible. However, what I've realized is that this kind of prayer is something that is universally needed, in fact let us never grow out of our neediness. Our proper spiritual posture should be that of a child. “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." - Matthew 18:3 Learn more about The Overflow [ HERE ](http://theoverflow.com/ "HERE" )
