i'm not worthy...take me out of the dark...

Take Me Out of the Dark
by Gary Valenciano
(see video here)


Just what is it in me?
Sometimes i just don't know
What keeps me in Your love
Why You never let me go

And though You're in me now
i fall and hurt you still
My Lord please show me how
To know just how You feel

You have forgiven me
Too many times it seems
i feel i'm not what You might call
A worthy Christian after all
And though i love you so
Temptations find their way to me

Teach me to trust in You
With all of my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
'Cause i just forget
You won't give me what we can't bear
Take me out of the dark My Lord
I don't want to be there

You never left my side
You gave Your hand to me
To hold You, oh Jesus
i'm no longer in the cold

And yet i leave You there
When i feel satisfied
i'd like to thank You everyday
Not only when i feel that way

i've never known a man
Who'd give His life for sinners like me
And yet because He loves us so
He promised us eternity
And we can have that promise and be His
If we have faith and just believe

Teach us to trust in You
With all our heart
To lean not on our own understanding
'Cause we just forget
You won't give us what we can't bear
Take us out of the dark our Lord
We don't want to be there
Yeah, My Lord

Teach me to trust in You
With all of my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
'Cause I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear
Take me out of the dark my Lord
We don't want to be alone
You take me out of the dark my Lord
i don't want to be there
