I Need Lyrics

I had my pride
I had my prayers
I had my good intentions
Thought I was strong and in control
Thought I was self-sufficient
In my delusion I thought I had everything
My narrow mind made me blind
And You had to let me fall
To finally make me see

I need Your light, lead me
I need Your word, feed me
I need to know what I need
Show me my emptiness
So You can fill it with
Everything You want for me
It took so long for me to realize
I need

You saw right through
These paper walls
That I had built around me
Your holy fire burned them down
And now Your love surrounds me
In the ashes I can clearly see the proof
My own strength is my own weakness
Lord, I surrender
Because I'm helpless without You

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
