A song of intamacy with the Almighty
I wanted to write a love song to the Lord that protrayed the great need I have for Him and Him alone.
ONLY WITH YOU
Lyrics by Peter Merz
Music by Mark E. Ellis
The night stretches out, it’s full of shadowy clouds
Everything’s changed when I call out Your name
Everything’s new, and piercing through
The shades of night surrender to Your light
From the moment I met You I knew
I could be this happy only with You
CHORUS
Oh Jesus, like oxygen I breathe You in
Totally consumed
By Your holy love from above
I feel this way only with you
Oh and the sun and moon may fade away someday
But Your love is not that way
From that first moment I saw You I knew
I’d find love like this only with you.
Break
I turn the page, and still in age after age
All of my dreams fall apart at the seams
If not for You how could I ever get through
So hold me close, Lord, ‘cause I need You the most
And I know this to be true
I’ll find the way only with You
CHORUS
Instrumental
BRIDGE
Jesus, You’re everything I need
The one thing that’s clear to me
Is that I need you near to me
Because You are so dear to me
Even if the sun and moon do fade away
Your love will always stay
There’s only one thing in this world that’s really true.
That’s this love I find only with You
