Just sharing...

Every now and then, a song comes along that's just a classic testimony song. One that most Christians could identify with and consider one of "their" songs. The following is one of those for songs for me. It's been around for several years, but each time I hear it, it has the same effect. And the lyrics are beautifully enough put, that you can feel the heart of it, even if you've never heard the song. (though I highly recommend you look up Avalon and hear it if you haven't!)

Hope you enjoy.......


EVERYTHING TO ME
by Chad Cates and Sue Smith

I grew up in Sunday School
Memorized the Golden Rule,
and how Jesus came to set the sinner free.
I know the story inside out,
and I could tell you all about the path
That led Him up to Calvary.

But ask me why He loves me,
and I don't know what to say.
But I'll never be the same because
He changed my life when He became....

Everything to me
He's more than a story
More than words on a page of history.
He's the air that I breathe,
the water I thirst for,
And the ground beneath my feet,
He's everything...
Everything to me.

We're living in uncertain times,
And more and more I find that I'm aware
Of just how fragile life can be.
I want to tell the world I've found
A love that turned my life around
They need to know that they can taste and see,

So now every day I'm praying,
Just to give my heart away
I want to live for Jesus
So that someone else might see that He is.....

EVERYTHING to me,
He's more than a story
More than words on a page of history.
He's the air that I breathe, the water I thirst for
and the ground beneath my feet,
He's Everything......

And looking back over my life at the end, I want to meet You,
Saying you've been......

EVERYTHING to me.
More than a story,
more than words on a page of history
You're the air that I breathe
The water I thirst for,
and the ground beneath my feet,
You're Everything, Everything to me.
