You Are

I find this song both beautiful and challenging. Is He really everything to me? Sometimes He is and sometimes I want Him to be but I know He isn't. Perhaps the wanting is most important because nothing I can do is worthy of the amazing love that He has shown me. This song draws me closer, I hope it does you too.

You are the love of my life
You are the hope that I cling to
You mean more than this world to me
I wouldn't trade you for silver or gold
I wouldn't trade you for riches untold.
You are you are my everything

I wouldn't take one step without you
I could never go on.
I couldn't breathe one breath without you.
I don't have the strength
To make it on my own

Until the world stops turning
Until the stars fade, from the sky
Until the sun stops shining
I need you in my life and here's the reason why!

Beautiful video and a favorite song of mine. Being focused on reminding myself that "[he] is my everything" keeps me more aware of what I am called to be. This in turn causes me to strive for that goal of perfectly loving him...Not always successful, but I can't stop trying! Thank you, Mike! Cathy

Beautiful song, good reminder. Just a while ago I had to remind myself, that I have to fix my eyes on HIM, always!! Thanks for commenting on my blog and noticing the bible verse! You are good! Have a good evening!

Great the passage: I wouldn't take one step without you
I could never go on.
I couldn't breathe one breath without you.
I don't have the strength
To make it on my own
.
I fully agree.
