Without You

Without You, I can do nothing.

It’s You on whom I depend.

You give me hope for my future,

With Your promise of life with no end.



Your love daily sustains me.

All things I accomplish through You.

When the enemy tries to put doubts in my mind,

Your Spirit is here to imbue.



It doesn’t matter what problems arise.

I know the answer’s with You.

I simply say, "Lord, give me patience,

And the wisdom to know what to do."



The assurance You’re always with me,

Gives me confidence all will go well.

Each day I seek You in all that I do.

I involve You in every detail.



Not every problem is solved as I wish.

But I trust You know what’s best.

So I simply move on and put it behind.

I don’t let it cause me distress.



When You became number one in my life,

You changed my heart from within.

My outlook on life is now totally changed.

But I had to start over again.



Without You, life has no meaning.

But with You, I’ll always succeed.

The blessings You give me each day that I live,

Are much more than I’ll ever need.



Happiness, health and a good attitude,

Are a few of the blessings You give.

Treasures of this world have no meaning.

Lord, it’s You for whom I want to live.
