Whitney Houston - I Look To You Lyrics

Artist: Whitney Houston

Album: I Look To You

  • Songwriters: Robert Kelly

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song, I look to you

About to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

I look to you
I look to you
And when all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song, I look to you

My levee's have broken, my walls have come
Crumbling down on me
The rain is falling, defeat is calling
I need you to set me free

Take me far away from the battle
I need you, shine on me

I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength has gone
In you I can be strong

I look to you
I look to you
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song, I look to you

I look to you
I look to you

    I only heard the song once, so i deceided to check out the lyrics as i always do. Indeed, i can imagine what you went through. Hey sis, its well. Thank God for the life He has given you which has also given you hope. Remem ber, if there was hope for a tree that was cut down to sprout up again, then there is hope for you being the apple of God's eyes. HOLD ON!!!!! its not over until it is over.

    Whitney you are my hero; everything about you speaks hope, especially this song... I read someone said "your come back has nothing to do with God". I know this is God. I appreciate you and your voice so much... I'm in tears every time I listen to this song; it makes me think about what I've been through, how far God has brought me; what I'm going through right now believing Him that challenges yet to come will be taking care of by Him. I love Whitney. Stay strong in Jesus name.

    This song is awesome!!!!! Whitney's come-back is encouraging to so many....proving that no matter what we can come out on top with God, he's all we got. He's the only one that understands, I love the fact that GOD, not man looks beyond our faults and sees our need. Whitney, you go girl...what GOD has for you, is for you!!! Still loving your music, I listen to at least one of your songs everyday at work.
