What am I?

O Lord our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the world! Which hast set thy Glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength, because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. When I behold thy heavens, even the works of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained, What is Man, say I, that thou art mindful of him. and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than God, and crowned him with glory and worship. thou hast made him to have dominion in the works of thine hands, thou hast put all things under his feet. All sheep and oxen: yea, and the beasts of the field. The fowls of the air and the fish of the sea, that which passeth through the paths of the seas. O Lord our lord, how excellent is thy name in all the world! ~Psalm 8


What is man, say I, that thou art mindful of him? What am I, say I, that you should love me Lord?

I'm nothing. Nothing without you Lord. Draw me Nearer, never let me go. Closer to your heart, draw me nearer Lord.

I've been wading in shallow waters, You're the ocean I am after.

You're all I have
All I need
The air I must die to breathe
You hold my life
In your hands
Hang my head
Break My heart
All I felt I had torn apart
My burden to bear
Taken from my cares
You're all I have
All I need
The air you died so I could breathe
You offer your love
In your hands
Lord you let me know
That I can breathe again


My King is my all in all, the air I die to myself to breathe. My breath is my life Lord, and you are my breath. My first breath when I rise, My last breath when I rest.  I know all I can do is keep breathing. Thank you Lord, I know that I can keep breathing.
