Taken from this interview:
Mark – Talk about the song “I Need You To Love Me.”
Alyssa – “I Need You To Love Me” came out of our journals. It was based on the fear that we’re unlovable to God. We felt challenged to stop convincing Him of the reasons why we deserved His love.
Lauren – Instead we needed to accept God’s love in our lives as a free gift.
Lyrics for Barlow Girl: I need you to love me
Why, why are You still here with me?
Didn’t You see what I’ve done?
In my shame I want to run, and hide myself
But it’s here I see the truth
I don’t deserve You
But I need You to love me, and I
I won’t keep my heart from You this time
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me
I, I have wasted so much time
Pushing You away from me
I just never saw how you, could cherish me
‘Cause You’re a God who has all things
And still You want me
And I need You to love me, and I
I won’t keep my heart from You this time
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Your love makes me forget what I have been
Your love makes me see who I really am
Your love makes me forget what I have been
Woah-Oh-Oh
And I need you to love me yeah
I need you to, love me, yeah yeah yeah
And I’ll stop this pretending that I can
Somehow deserve what I already have
I need you to love me
I need you to love me, yeah
I need you to
Oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah
Oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah
Oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah
Love Me
Love Me
Faith + Hope + Love 
can u pray 4 me
I love the Barlow Girls! They have great music. I’m Pentecostal. I enjoy listening to them.
God so loved the world that he gave his only
begotten son,that who so ever believeth
shall never die,but have everlasting life
John 3:16
This song hits home if you really pay attention to the lyrics. Why should a Omnipotent, all powerful God love us. He gave his one and only son to die for you and me. Wow, to think about that puts me in awe. But this song says God’s love is abundant and never ending.
God rocks Caitlin! – Mark.
