About God Help Me

"God Help Me" is a single by Christian pop and rock artist Rebecca St. James. Its release was announced on Rebecca St. James' official MySpace profile and opened up the "Music Patrol" challenge. The challenge encouraged those in St. James' Friend Space to add the song "God Help Me" to their profiles and to encourage others to do the same.

The song never appeared on any Billboard charts.

From the deep I cry
I am needing change in my life
I have let the cold creep in and lock my ability to feel (deeply)
Just now a shaft of light shot through my soul
Opening up the windows and the doors
Reaching to the corners and my flaws
Showing my need

I'm running out of time to live
Running out of love to give
Running out of life within
God help me

I don't care who stares
Never want to be what I have been again
Grace has taken over and drawn me in and I am embracing it
Cause now I see Your light drawing me close
Overwhelming love I don't deserve
But I'll take the hope You bring, You hold it out to me
Without You
