Psalm 73:21-26

"When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."

The thing that sets Christianity apart from any other religion in the world is Grace. We cannot earn our salvation. We cannot work towards God's favor. In fact, even when we blatantly turn our backs on God, He still is willing to sacrifice and die for us. We truly have nothing and no one who is as faithful to us as God. Even at our worst and even when we don't deserve it, He is willing to forgive us. In our weakest, darkest moments He is willing to carry us through.

lyrics

Verse 1
My heart is bitter and cold
My mind is senseless and numb
But you still offer me your hand
And you guide me back to your throne

Chorus 1
You are all I want
You are all I need
In my darkest, weakest
You will carry me

Verse 2
O how my heart, my flesh it fails
And nothing on this empty earth will do
For only you, O God, are good
Whom have I in heaven but you?

Chorus 2
You are all I want
You are all I need
In my darkest, weakest
You will carry me
When I'm found in want
When I'm lost in need
In my darkest, weakest
You will carry me

Chorus 3
When I'm scared to death
And I'm filled with fear
You stay by my side
And you draw me near
When I'm trapped in sin
And I cannot see
You reach out your hands
And you carry me
When I'm found in want
When I'm lost in need
In my darkest, weakest
You're preparing me
You are all I want
You are all I need
In my darkest, weakest
You will carry me
