Fred Hammond's song 'I Need Your Love' is a worshipful declaration of dependence on God. Drawing from Psalm 46:1, the lyrics affirm God as a refuge and strength, a present help in trouble. The singer confesses inability to make it alone and cries out for God's refreshing and love. The song emphasizes that nothing compares to God's love, which provides help and completeness.

God is our refuge and strength yeah

A very present help in the time of trouble


God is our refuge and strength yeah

A very present help in the time of trouble


Father I cry out to You

Because I know You are listening

Father, I need you

Thought I could make it by myself

My Spirit tarry

Please come and refresh me

Give me the strength to try again


There is nothing I needed more

Than Your precious love upon me

Everything I've been searching for

I find in You completely


Lord, I need Your love

I need Your Love

That's where I can find

All my help, oh oh oh

What can I compare

To Your great Love

There's nothing else

I need Your Love


Anybody know what I'm talking about?

Can't make it without You


When my life is drifting

In waves of confusion

When my heart is torn and overwhelmed

I'll call on the name of

The Alpha and Omega

For You are my present, present help


There is nothing I needed more

Than Your precious love upon me

Everything I've been searching for

I find in You completely


Lord, I need Your love

That's where I can find

All my help, oh oh oh

What can I compare

To Your great Love

There's nothing else


Lord, I need Your love

That's where I can find

All my help, oh oh oh

What can I compare

To Your great Love

There's nothing else


God is my refuge and strength, Hallelujah

(God is our refuge and our strength)

A very present help in times of trouble


God is our refuge and our strength

A very present help in times of trouble

[repeat]
