Can't live a day without You

On the way to church today, I was 'stoning' in the bus, and this song came to me :)

It's You
You who have won my heart
Taken me into Your arms
Comforted me like a friend

Your love,
Surrounded me from the start
I never want to be apart
From You ever again


The journey back to Jesus is so precious to me. I have lived life without Him and I have lived life with Him. And let me tell You, the present is oh so much sweeter. Even as I looked back on my past, I see His faithfulness in my life - at a time when I was in denial. I am the most 'intellectual' person I know then, and I simply could not 'figure' Christianity out.

Now, looking back, there is no way to know God with my head. I only am able to know Him with my heart. At times, He's the only sure person I can cling on. The rock that I hold on to and rest in.

Have you ever felt desperate for Him? I have! Sometimes, He seems so far, but actually He's very close. Sometimes, I just want to get closer still but don't know how. Then I just pray in tongues, or just say His name over and over again, and speak His Word, and yes, sometimes I sing too!


I could live life alone
And never fill the longings of my heart
The healing warmth of someone's arms
And I could live without dreams
And never know the thrill of what could be
With every star so far and out of reach
I could live without many things
And I could carry on, but...

I couldn't face my life tomorrow
Without Your hope in my heart I know
I can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
Without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all I do
I can't live a day without You

I could travel the world
See all the wonders beautiful and new
They'd only make me think of You
And I could have all life offers
Riches that were far beyond compare
To grant my every wish without a care
Oh, I could do anything, oh yes
But if You weren't in it all...

I couldn't face my life tomorrow
Without Your hope in my heart I know
I can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
Without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all I do
I can't live a day without You

Oh, Jesus, I live because You live
You're like the air I breathe
Oh, Jesus, I have because You give
You're everything to me
