[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Verse 1]
There was a time I could not stand,
Nor even feed myself aright;
I wandered as a homeless soul,
Without a guide, without a light.
But in Your love You sent me help,
And showed me mercy from above;
My heart is filled with gratitude
For all You've done through tender love.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Verse 2]
Like one who left his father's house,
I roamed afar in various ways;
I chased the wonders of this world,
And lost myself in empty days.
But when I sank in dark despair,
And none on earth could set me free,
You came and searched and rescued me,
And brought me home in victory.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Verse 3]
My enemies devised a snare,
And thought my soul was theirs to bind;
They spread the net of death and gloom,
And hoped to leave my soul behind.
But You, O Christ, the Light of life,
Came down and broke the cords for me.
You shattered every chain of night,
And gave my captive spirit liberty.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Verse 4]
Let all the earth, both far and near
Give ear and hear this truth abroad:
There is no other God like mine,
No Saviour like the living God.
He rescues souls weighed down by grief,
He hears the cry of agony;
Call upon Him while yet you may,
And He will answer graciously.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Verse 5]
I still remember well the bond,
The covenant You made with me:
A covenant of life and peace,
Not death, nor grief, nor misery.
Therefore, with all that is in me,
I'll rise and bless Your holy name;
For You have kept me by Your grace,
And evermore remain the same.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
[Chorus]
I am nothing without You, Lord,
Who shed Your precious blood for me;
From miry clay You drew me out,
I'll not forget Your love for me.
