WE HAVE NOTHING TO GIVE
That didn’t first come from Your hands
We have nothing to offer You
Which You did not provide
Every good perfect gift comes from
Your kind and gracious heart,
And all we do is give back to You
What always has been Yours
Lord, we’re breathing the breath
That You gave us to breathe
To worship You, to worship You
And we’re singing these songs
With the very same breath
To worship You, to worship You
Who has given to You
That it should be paid back to him?
Who has given to You
As if You needed anything?
From You, and to You, and through You
Come all things O Lord
And all we do is give back to You
What always has been Yours
We are breathing the breathe
That You gave us to breathe
Matt Redman
