It always starts with "Dear Jesus"
Can't believe it's been this long
It's like I only reach for help
When everything is going wrong
It's just like me to cry these tears
It's just like You to catch them all
Every time You're right there waiting
Before I even call
God, I need You every moment
I can't do this on my own
God, I don't deserve the kind of love
Your heart has always shown
You're my healer, my redeemer, my Savior, and my strength
Thank you, God, You always hear the prayers I pray
You always lead me right to mercy
Pourin' from Your open hands
And there's peace inside Your presence
I can't even understand
As every word breaks through to heaven
Let my heart say once again
God, I need You every moment
I can't do this on my own
God, I don't deserve the kind of love
Your heart has always shown
You're my healer, my redeemer, my Savior, and my strength
Thank you, God, You always hear the prayers I pray
Thank You for Your kindness
Thank You for Your love
Thank You for forgiveness
For never givin' up
Thank You for the blessings
You've poured all over me
I'm lifting up my prayers, Lord
'Cause I know You're listening
God, I need You every moment
I can't do this on my own
God, I don't deserve the kind of love
Your heart has always shown
You're my healer, my redeemer, my Savior, and my strength
Thank you, God, You always hear the prayers I pray
Thank you, God, You always hear the prayers I pray
It always starts with "Dear Jesus," and this is how it always ends
Thank You, I love You, In Jesus' name
Amen

💡 Song Meaning & Background
This reflective song acknowledges that God hears our unspoken prayers and is faithful even when we don't know what to ask. It reflects the comfort of Romans 8:26, where the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
