My Everything

How could I deserve You, my King?

You, my God, my everything

So I wasn't so bad that's what they say

Maybe you lied, cheated some days

A little here, a little there

What does it matter? Why do you care?

You didn't kill anyone. You weren't a rebel

Just, like everyone you fell

But You, my God, You understand

You've seen my life from the starting strand

You saw the emptiness that overshadowed

And the darkness that I embattled

A shaft of light, You broke my world

Your hand reaching to this one girl

Hope so bright, You hope so true

Hope that called, "I want YOU.

"Your not too young, nor too stupid or wild

Your mine, I bought you, Your MY child."

You saw my tears when I was alone

You beckoned me to you to come

With your huge joy you filled me up

Your love runs from my cup

Love that swells and laughs and grows

Love that reaches out and flows

My question, Oh God, this one no more

How in the world did I live before?

How could I have that that was life?

When there was nothing worth the strife

But You fulfill in me every crevice

In You, I find my joy in Your service

I could never deserve You, my King.

You, my God, Yourself my everything.
