When I need you
Hammond & West Lyrics

Well, Lord, I need You to wrap Your arms around me
I am in desperate need of your protection and support, oh Lord

Wrap Your arms around with Your mercy
Envelop me in your compassionate love and forgiveness

Lord, I need You to wrap Your arms around me
I continue to seek your comforting embrace, dear Lord

I give up on doin' things my way
I surrender my own desires and plans, realizing they are insufficient

And tell me everything's gonna be alright, oh
Please reassure me that all will be well, oh Heavenly Father

When you said give me a ring, you really meant a ring, huh?
Did you truly intend for me to propose marriage when you said 'give me a ring', right?

Turned out to be more than just a fling, huh?
Our relationship became deeper and more significant than a casual romantic affair, didn't it?

Three hours to get back from Palm Springs, huh?
It took three long hours to return from our trip to Palm Springs, didn't it?

Who you know spend an hour in Walgreens, huh?
Who else would spend an entire hour at Walgreens, right?

You know you'll always be my favorite prom queen
You will forever hold the special place of being my beloved queen of the prom

Even when we in dad shoes, or mom jeans
Even during the times when we are dressed in more casual and comfortable attire

Too many complaints made it hard for me to think
The multitude of grievances and criticisms have clouded my ability to think clearly

Would you shut up? I can't hear myself drink
Could you please stop talking? I am trying to enjoy my drink in peace

We used to do the freak like seven days a week
We used to engage in wild and passionate activities every day of the week

It's the best collab since Taco Bell and KFC, uh
Our partnership and connection is as great as the iconic collaboration between Taco Bell and KFC

Talk to me nicely, don't come at me loud
Please speak to me in a kind and gentle manner, rather than approaching me with aggression

You had a Benz at sixteen, I could barely afford a Audi
You owned a Mercedes-Benz when you were just sixteen, while I struggled to afford even an Audi

How you gon' try to say sometimes it's not about me?
How can you argue that sometimes the focus should not be on me?

Man, I don't know what I would do without me
Honestly, I cannot fathom what my life would be like if I didn't have myself

Billionaire sport, step up to the court
Engaging in this game of life, where the rewards are immense, let's rise to the challenge

They rented a room, we bought the resort
While others settle for temporary accommodations, we have acquired a whole resort

God got me, baby, God got the children
I trust in God's protection and care for me, my love, and our offspring

The devil run the playground, but God own the buildin'
Although evil may have some influence in the world, ultimately, God reigns supreme

Time went silence, a luxury
Experiencing moments of tranquility and silence has become a rare and precious gift

Cussin' at your baby mama, guess that's why they call it custody
Engaging in vulgar arguments with the mother of your child, perhaps that's why they use the term 'custody'

God got us, baby, God got the children
Our protection and well-being are ultimately in God's hands, my love, as well as the welfare of our children

The devil run the playground, but God own the buildin'
While malevolence may hold some power in certain aspects of life, God ultimately possesses complete control

Time and space is a luxury
Time and space have become scarce resources that are highly valuable

But you came here to show that you still in love with me
However, you arrived here to demonstrate that you are still deeply in love with me

Startin' to feel like you ain't been happy for me lately, darlin'
I am beginning to sense that you haven't been sharing in my happiness lately, my dear

'Member when you used to come around and serenade me, whoa
Do you remember the times when you used to visit and sing romantic songs to me, oh wow

But I guess it's gone different in a different direction lately
But I suppose our relationship has taken a different path in recent times

Tryna do the right thing with the freedom that you gave me (Wheezy outta here)
I am attempting to make the best choices with the liberty that you have granted me (producer tag: Wheezy outta here)

Your gun off safety
Your weapon's safety catch is disengaged

Speak first, don't break me
Please express your thoughts before they harm and shatter me

Harsh words, you're angry
You are filled with rage, resulting in the usage of harsh and hurtful language

Lord, don't take me, oh, oh
Dear Lord, I implore you not to take me away, oh, oh

Well, Lord, I need You to wrap Your arms around me
Once again, I strongly desire for your comforting embrace, dear Lord

Wrap Your arms around with Your mercy
Envelop me in your compassionate love and forgiveness, providing me with your mercy

Lord, I need You to wrap Your arms around me
Continuously, I seek your protecting embrace, oh Lord

I give up on doin' things my way
I surrender my own methods and approaches, acknowledging their inadequacy

And tell me everything's gonna be alright, oh (Wheezy outta here)
Assure me that all will be well, oh Heavenly Father (producer tag: Wheezy outta here)
