When Theres Nothing Else

Verse 1 Whisperings in the dark, be my light and meet me where you are You said be not afraid, I kneel before you, with casted burdens laid In a dry and thirsty land, come unto you, be guided by your hand With a parchment of the field, I find a well, the sources spring revealed Chorus When there’s nothing else, nothing else, to give you but myself In place of apparent wealth, you are my foundation, you’re my light and my health For you are my strength and you are my shield, without you, there’s no shining light in me For you are my strength and you are my shield, without you, there’s no shining light in me Verse 2 On you I shall depend, through the forceful trials, our father will defend No greater sacrifice, you thought of me, you truly paid the price On such a temporal plane, this journey through, yet all will pass away Of times that have begun, you oversee, the victory is won Chorus Bridge You are my crown of gold, there’s no greater fill, replenishing my soul No other fills the void, no one can bestow, may my cup overflow Chorus Ending When there’s nothing else, nothing else, to give you but myself When there’s nothing else, nothing else, to give you but myself Written by Geraldine Taylor ©?
