I Am Nothing Lyrics - Singles - Ginny Owens

I could travel over oceans 

Cross the deserts, climb the mountains 

Just to share Your story 

Bring You glory and win souls for You 

And I could sing like an angel 

Songs so humble and so thankful 

Full of drama and emotion 

So the world would know Your truth 

I could give away my money 

And my clothes and my food 

To restore those people who are poor 

And lost and down and out 

Oh, I could succeed at all these things 

Find favor with peasants and kings 

But if I do not love, I am nothing 

I could live a flawless life 

Never cheat or steal or lie 

And always speak so kindly 

Smile so warmly and go about doing good 

I could dedicate myself to do 

What everyone else wants me to 

Listen to them, compliment them 

Say the things I should 

I could show up every Sunday 

Lead the choir and Bible Study 

And they all might come to know me 

As a leader and a friend 

Oh, I could achieve success on earth 

But success cannot define my worth 

And all these actions, all these words 

They will not matter in the end 

'Cause songs will fade to silence 

Stories, they will cease 

The dust will settle 

Covering all my selfless deeds 

So as I strive to serve You 

Won't You make it clear to me? 

That if I do not love, I am nothing 

And if I cannot live my life 

Loving my brother 

Then how can I love the One 

Who lived His life for me? 

Oh, sent to earth from Heaven 

Humble Servant, Holy King 

Come to share a story, get no glory 

And save my searching soul 

You knew that I'd deny You, crucify You 

But nothing could stop You 

From living for me, dying for me 

So that I would know 

That songs will fade to silence 

Stories they will cease 

The dust will settle 

Covering all my selfless deeds 

But Your life here has made it 

Clear enough for me to see 

That if I do not love, I am nothing
