All the World

I may have everything this world has to offer,
 I may own a castle by the sea,
 But without Jesus as my Lord,
 Those things would mean nothing to me.

 I don't have anything, if I don't have Jesus,
 He gives me peace and victory.
 He's all that I could ever need.
 He's all the world to me.

 I wouldn't even want to face tomorrow,
 If Jesus wasn't there with me.
 I wouldn't have any reason for living,
 Without Jesus, I could never be free.
