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]

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]
