I forget how much I need you until I run away Chasing after things I think I want when theyre only in the way And somehow I manage to forget that Ill only hurt myself Away from your presence, pretending I was someone else. I rain down praises on my own head Then look in the mirror and see Im all wet But youre my redeemer, my one true friend. Youre the only hope I know And though I may not always act like it I do want you to know. You are everything to me And if you take away your love, God I cant even breathe. The life I live is the grace that you give cause you died to set me free. You are my peace, and without you Im incomplete My Jesus, youre everything, youre everything to me. Im so glad that you can use me in spite of my own flaws cause I know that if you couldnt Id be no good to you at all.
So I wont be afraid of trouble, cause I know youll bring me through. I wont be ashamed to stumble, cause youll teach me to rely on you. Im just not brave enough to be strong. But Im rejoicing in the knowledge that you knew that all along. Teach me to be strong Lord. Show me how to obey your commands. Thank you for seeing who I could be instead of seeing who I am. Youve looked beyond my faults and seen my endless need. Youre everything. Youre everything to me. You are everything to me And if you take away your love, God I cant even breathe. The life I live is the grace that you give cause you died to set me free. You are my peace, and without you Im incomplete My Jesus, youre everything. (You are the joy, the love that I need my Jesus, youre everything.)
