Desperate Lyrics by Ryan Hylton

Testament

2024

[Verse]
Desperately waiting for you
Knocking on your door
I’m not asking you for more
Can you hear me calling?
Calling out your name
I’m not asking for the fame

[Pre Chorus]
I’ll sit in the back seat if that means I’m with you
I’ll be your caddie if that means I’m near you
Could be wedged deep in the sands, but I’ll trust and take your hand.
Lord, I know you’re fighting for me

[Chorus]
Can you hear me calling?
Tell me you can hear me calling
I’ve been crying out until the morning
‘Cause I’ve been praying every morning
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
(Yeah)
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
(Jesus)
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you

[Verse]
There’s times I thought to run away
(Run away)
‘Cause I’ve been living with all this shame
(Oh)
But I know you never turn away
Or hide away,I can find a way

[Pre Chorus]
I’ll sit in the back seat if that means I’m with you
(Means I’m with you)
I’ll be your caddie if that means I’m near you
Could be wedged deep in the sands
But I’ll trust and take your hand
Lord, I know you’re fighting for me, yeah

[Chorus]
Can you hear me calling?
Tell me you can hear me calling
I’ve been crying out until the morning
‘Cause I’ve been praying every morning
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
(Jesus, Yeah)
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
(Jesus, How I’m desperate)
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you

[Bridge]
Nights I have prayed for a shoulder to cry on
(A shoulder to cry on)
Hoping for a love that I can rely on
 Oh, Jesus

[Chorus]
Can you hear me calling?
(Can you hear me calling?)
Tell me you can hear me calling
(Knocking on your door)
I’ll be crying out until the morning
(Until the morning)
‘Cause I’ve been praying every morning
(Every morning)
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
Knocking on your door
Desperately for me
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
Couldn’t see how I could be free
Lord, you chose me and I’m
Desperate, how I’m desperate for you
