i am nothing

it's days like this that make me want to cry.
a day spent meaninglessly.
tiring to the point of nausea.
giddy at the thought of what there is to do.
in the quiet of my room.
by the dim light of the lamp.
with the sound of the thunder and rain.

i want to hide beneath the rain.
let the thunder and the lightning conceal me.
let the sound of water hitting the leaves cover me.
the darkness and the misty rain outside my window...
the only solace i can find.


sigh. i wish life would just hurry up. i don't feel as if i have the strength to wait it out.

i have and am nothing...
if You were not everything to me.

Take these hands and lift them up
For I have not the strength to praise You near enough
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

Take my voice and pour it out
Let it sing the songs of mercy I have found
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

Chorus:
All my soul needs
Is all Your love to cover me
So all the world will see
That I have nothing without You

Take my body and build it up
May it be broken as an offering of love
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

All my soul needs
Is all Your love to cover me
So all the world will see
That I have nothing
But I love You

With all my heart
With all my soul
With all my might
With all the strength that I can find

Take my time here on this earth
And let it glorify all that You are worth
For I am nothing,
I am nothing without You

- Nothing Without You, Bebo Norman
