I messed up. I am helpless on my own. Not one likes to admit we can't make it through this thing called life all by our selves. We need God. Matt Maher's song, "Lord I Need Thee" is inspired by an old hymn and this huge need for a God.

"I think we live in a time and age where we want to be self-sufficient and self-reliant and self-determining. And so then, all of a sudden they hear a message at church on a Sunday where someone says, 'You have to admit that you need God,' it's kind of uncomfortable for us." - Matt Maher

Matt talks about embracing our need for God and his inspiration for the song in this short video. [fluidvideo url="//www.youtube.com/embed/hjJ9WaYCmVk"]

"I've found so much reassurance and so much hope in knowing that I need [a God] and every hour I need Him, every moment that I need Him, He is ready to meet my need." - Matt Maher

It's a powerful thought.  It's ok to need help. The God that we desperately need really is here for us in every waking hour. You can hear the whole song, "Lord I Need You" by Matt Maher right here in his official lyric video. [fluidvideo url="//www.youtube.com/embed/LuvfMDhTyMA"]
