Empty Handed Songtext
von Lindsay McCaul
Empty Handed Songtext
All the banners I have waved
For my glory and my gain
Empty promises of fame
But I see the truth
I give up all I had to prove
I turn my back on my pursuits
′Cause there's no worth in all the world
Compared to You
′Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
Not a credit to my name
Nothing earned that I can claim
No position I could trade
But You're beckoning
You take my nothing and my need
And place a crown on poverty
You gave Your life for me so I could see that
You are everything
'Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
You′re worth everything
I won′t count the cost
All I thought was gain
Count it all as loss
'Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
Yes I come as I am
Empty handed>
For my glory and my gain
Empty promises of fame
But I see the truth
I give up all I had to prove
I turn my back on my pursuits
′Cause there's no worth in all the world
Compared to You
′Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
Not a credit to my name
Nothing earned that I can claim
No position I could trade
But You're beckoning
You take my nothing and my need
And place a crown on poverty
You gave Your life for me so I could see that
You are everything
'Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
You′re worth everything
I won′t count the cost
All I thought was gain
Count it all as loss
'Cause all You are is all I need
You fill the deepest part of me
And all I have that I can bring
Was never meant to belong to me
You overflow from who You are
And overwhelm my heart
So I come as I am
Empty handed
Yes I come as I am
Empty handed>
