Lyrics


Take away the sun or the moon
or even a cool breeze in a hot afternoon
Then I would have nothing...I would have nothing.

Take away those auburn skies
Or the stars or things beyond my eyes
I would have nothing...I would have nothing

CHORUS:

Because I believe that God is King
the creator of everything
And I believe He made it all for His glory
Because I know Christ is Lord
I will use His word as my sword
I will always tell the world His true story
'cause He is holy...holy


Take away the love of someone
Or take away all my emotions
Then I'd have nothing...I'd have nothing


Take away everything I can learn
Or take away all that I can earn
I would have nothing...I would have nothing


CHORUS:

Because I believe that God is king
He's the ruler of everything
I believe He made every soul for His glory
And I know Christ is Lord
As I use His word as my sword
those who are saved will tell of His story
He is holy, so holy

Take away my worldly ways
Hollywood dreams and crazy games I play
I will have Jesus...I will have Jesus

Take away my foolish pride
My ego and selfishness I strive
I have Jesus...yea I have Jesus

CHORUS:

Because I believe my God is King
He is the answer to everything
I will always give Him all the glory
And I know Christ is Lord
And I will soon receive my reward
For every seed I've planted from His story
'Cause He's holy, so holy

(Repeat)
