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

chorus

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

chorus(2x)
