Benjamin Dube - I Need Your Touch Lyrics

“I Need Your Touch” by Benjamin Dube is a short, repeated prayer for God to act once again. The central line, “I need Your touch once again,” is sung over and over, and it is joined by a confession of lordship: “You are my Lord and You’re my king.” The singer also asks for deliverance, using the same “once again” language, as if returning to a place of dependence.

The middle section becomes more specific. It asks to be touched and anointed, and then to be molded and broken, an image close to the potter and the clay in Isaiah 64:8 and Jeremiah 18:6. The line “I need it Jesus every day” makes the request ongoing, not a single event.

The ending calls on the Savior by name and returns to the repeated plea. The song has few words and little narrative, but its repetition keeps it in the form of a congregational prayer, centered on need, surrender, and trust in the Lord’s touch.
