arms open wide

Without You,
I am nothing.
Without You,
I feel like an empty, abortive body just taking up space.
But I'm not.
Because I was made for You.
to bring glory to Your name.
to bestow Your love to everyone around me.
Without You,
I am hopeless.
Without You,
I lose the desire to breathe.
But I'm not.
Because You gave Your life for me.
You shed your precious blood for me.
You died and rose again, so I could believe
past the pain, and know that You have a
great plan for me.

"Take my life. I lay it down. At the cross, where I am found. All I have,

I give to You, Oh God.
Take my hands, and make them clean. Keep my heart in purity. That I may walk in all You have for me.
Take my moments and my days. Let each breath that I take,
be ever only for You, Oh God.
My whole life is Yours. I give it all. Surrendered to Your name. And forever I will pray,
have Your way."
