Story Behind The Song
I was working on a song writing project, we were assigned subjects to write about. I've never composed that way, and in the middle of all that I just walked into the studio and sat down at the piano and this came out, I wrote it in about 20 minutes. A lot of folks like this song and it has helped them through some rough times.

Lyrics
WITH YOU
From deep inside this song has come
I can't hide what You have done
With all my heart I want to say
My love for You grows every day
Nothing can take Your love away from me.
When I met You my whole life changed
My broken heart made whole again
And all of the times that I failed You
You never failed to see me through
I've been so false and You so true, so true to me.
I don't understand how You can love me, the way I am
I'm such a weak and weary man, I need you.
Instrumental:
(I want to tell you about it now!)
And so to You I owe my life
Lead me through the darkest night
I believe every word You say
Help me walk close to You each day
In every thought, in every way with You.
I believe every word you say
Help me walk close to You each day
In every thought, in every way with You.
