Down To Nothing

DOWN TO NOTHING I was down to nothing, sinking very low; God was up to something, ready then to go. I was down to nothing, deep in sin’s dark pit; God was up to something He could do for it. I was down to nothing, no hope there for me; God was up to something on Mount Calvary. All I had was nothing--no good works I claimed; God had all I needed--Jesus was His name! He knew I had nothing, that is why He died To make this poor sinner clean and justified! God took all my “nothing” through His wondrous love And gave me a “something”: home in heaven above! So when I’m down to nothing, deep in dark despair, God is up to something--He’ll be with me there!
