Nothing Without Christ

I heard this on the radio yesterday and it hit me that without Christ and His love for us to die on the cross for my sins, I would be NOTHING without Him!

Nothing Without Christ
by Eddie Carswell & Leonard Ahlstrom
Recorded by Newsong


I was like a blind man on a road that led nowhere
Just an empty-hearted beggar in desperate need of help
I was poor in spirit, but he was rich in love
I was down to nothin' when he came to lift me up
Now I will never let myself forget all he has done
How he came and rescued me and where he brought me from

Chorus:
I am nothing without Christ, he is everything to me
He's the reason that I live, he is my only need
I know I couldn't make it through
One day without Jesus in my life
I am nothing, nothing without Christ

There is nothing good in me that did not come from him
Nothing I could boast of that he did not give
From the moment I cried out to him to heal my troubled soul
He welcomed me with open arms, said all that's mine is yours

Now I will never let myself forget all he has done
How he came and rescued me and where he brought me from

I am nothing without Christ, he is everything to me
He's the reason that I live, he is my only need
I know I couldn't make it through
One day without Jesus in my life
I am nothing, nothing without Christ

Bridge:
Like a wave without a seashore or a kingdom with no king
Without Jesus in my life, I know I wouldn't be complete

I am nothing without Christ, he is everything to me
He's the reason that I live, he is my only need
I know I couldn't make it through
One day without Jesus in my life
I am nothing, nothing without Christ

I am nothing without Christ, he is everything to me
He's the reason that I live, he is my only need
I know I couldn't make it through
One day without Jesus in my life
I am nothing, nothing without Christ
