Find You On My Knees Lyrics by Kari Jobe
Troubles chasing me again,
Breaking down my best defence,
I’m looking, God, I’m looking for you
Weary just won’t let me rest
And fear is filling up my head.
I’m longing, God I’m longing for you
But I will find you in the place I’m in,
Find you when I’m at my end,
Find you when there’s nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you’ll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
I’ll find you on my knees.
So what if sorrow shakes my faith,
And what if heartache still remains?
I’ll trust you, my God I’ll trust you.
‘Cause You are faithful and I will…
Find you in the place I’m in,
Find you when I’m at my end,
Find you when there’s nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you’ll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
Find you on my knees, my knees.
When my hope is gone,
When the fear is strong
When the pain is real,
When it’s hard to heal
When my faith is shaken
And my heart is broken
And my joy is stolen,
God I know that…
[Regular version:] You lift me up, you’ll never leave me searching,
[Acoustic version:] You lift me up, you’ll never leave me thirsty,
Find you in the place I’m in,
Find you when I’m at my end,
Find you when there’s nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you’ll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
I’ll find you on my knees.
