On My Knees
Jaci Velasquez · Top 10 [2010]
the best of me is ready to begin
Then they're days when I feel
I'm letting go and soaring on the wind
Cause I've learned in laughter
or in pain how to survive
Chorus:
I get on my knees,
I get on my knees
There I am before the love
that changes me
See I don't know how
but there's power
when I'm on my knees
I can be in a crowd or by myself,
or almost anywhere
When I see there's a need
to talk with God, he is Emanuel
When I close my eyes no darkness there,
there's only light
Chorus 2:
I get on my knees,
I get on my knees
There I am before the love
that changes me
See I don't know how but there's power
in the blue skies, in the midnight
When I'm on my knees
I get on my knees,
I get on my knees
There I am before the love
that changes me
See I don't know how
but there's power when I'm on my...
Oh, When I'm on my
When I'm on my knees
On My Knees
