You are all I need

Woke early this morning, my mind whirling with many things. Getting ready for church I was tired, and getting more and more uptight.

In church, the first song we sung was given out by an elderly widower who probably has more difficulties in his life than I can imagine. The song was We bow down and confess, and one line simply says, "You are all I need."

It got me thinking:

When everything seems terrible,  
  you are all I need.
When I'm aware of my sinfulness, 
  you are all I need.
When I think I'm actually good enough, 
  you are all I need.
When I think I can do it on my own, 
  you are all I need.
When I feel inadequate, 
  you are all I need.
When things don't go my way, 
  you are all I need.
When it's hard to believe, 
  you are all I need.
When I'm full of good ideas for things I want to do,
  you are all I need.
When I worry about the future, 
  you are all I need.
When I feel like a loser, 
  you are all I need.
When my to-do list is growing, 
  you are all I need.
When the world is confusing, 
  you are all I need.
When it's hard to live your way, 
  you are all I need.
