APART FROM YOU

VERSE 1 I tried to build it on my own name, Stacked up stones of pride and shame. Every wall I raised came crashing down, I was a king without a crown. Born into the wreckage of a broken man's design, Slave to every impulse, every appetite, every lie. Then You came down into the rubble like Nehemiah did, You wept over what I'd wasted, then You paid for every bit. PRE-CHORUS You set me free from the slavery I couldn't shake, You gave me a new nature, not a patch, a new make. You are the cornerstone, I am the clay, Apart from You, I have nothing to say. CHORUS Apart from You I can do nothing, With You, God, I can do anything. Not my strength, not my grinding, It's Your Spirit moving in me. I am fathered by the Almighty, Redeemed and called by name. I give You all the glory, This life is Yours to claim. VERSE 2 I don't worry, blame, or lie anymore, That's not who I am, that's not what I was made for. Squeezed by trials, what comes out is Jesus, Not a perfect man, a desperate one He keeps. Rooted in Your love, armed in Your truth, Sword of the Spirit, that's my proof. When I enter a room, I carry You in, Because the work You started, Lord, You will finish. PRE-CHORUS You set me free from the slavery I couldn't shake, You gave me a new nature, not a patch, a new make. You are the cornerstone, I am the clay, Apart from You, I have nothing to say. CHORUS Apart from You I can do nothing, With You, God, I can do anything. Not my strength, not my grinding, It's Your Spirit moving in me. I am fathered by the Almighty, Redeemed and called by name. I give You all the glory, This life is Yours to claim. BRIDGE I don't consider it a sacrifice To surrender to the One who gave me life. I don't call it loss To lay it down before the cross. Bold and fierce, tender and tough. Servant and warrior, Your grace is enough. Not double-minded, not apathetic, not numb, I'm a son of the King, and the King's kingdom come. To You be the glory. Not to me. Every stone, every morning, Every victory. You did this. You do this. You will do this. To You alone, all glory. FINAL CHORUS Apart from You I can do nothing, With You, God, I can do anything. Not my strength, not my grinding, It's Your Spirit moving in me. I am fathered by the Almighty, Redeemed and called by name. I give You all the glory, This life is Yours to claim. This life. Is Yours. To claim.
