On My Knees

Last Thursday at my Bible study we sang this song, and we sang it again yesterday at church. It is a simple, quiet song, but has a powerful message. I was especially caught by the words of verse 3--sometimes we do find ourselves in a sadness that is not of our own choice, and there really is nothing to do about it except turn to our Lord.

When I don't know what I need
I need to get on my knees
When waves of doubt crash over me
I need to get on my knees

On my knees I find refuge
On my knees I find grace
On my knees I can feel You
Like we're meeting face to face
When I don't know what I need
I need to get on my knees

When I don't have strength to stand
I need to reach for Your hand
When life feels like sinking sand
I need to reach for Your hand

In Your hand I find refuge
In Your hand I find grace
In Your hand I can feel You
Like we're meeting face to face
When I don't have strength to stand
I need to reach for Your hand

When life leaves me with no choice
I must listen for Your voice
When lies confuse me with their noise
I must listen for Your voice

In Your voice I find refuge
In Your voice I find grace
In Your voice I can feel You
Like we're meeting face to face
When life leaves me with no choice
I will listen for Your voice

On my knees I find refuge
On my knees I find grace
On my knees I can feel You
Like we're meeting face to face
When I don't know what I need
I need to get on my knees

And just to prove how much I like this song, and spurred on by my efforts of yesterday, I purchased this song for download for $.88. Only after doing so did I learn that I'm not able to import it into iTunes. It can only be played by Windows Media Player.
