Nevertheless - O'Child

I want to come closer, but you are so distant.
Lately your thoughts are so far.
I want to show you all that you're missing,
and I'll meet you right where you are.

O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.
O' Love, I'm only asking you for your life.

Say that you need me. I know what you're feeling.
and You cannot do this alone. I gave you my Word,
and I gave you my life so you'll never be on your own.

O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.
O' Love, I'm only asking you for your life.

You're waiting for this life to be what you wanted
(Is this what you wanted?)
You're waiting for this life to be what you needed.
(Is this what you needed?)
You're waiting for this life.

O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.

This song was written basically from God to us, and it's amazing.
This song is God crying out to us, telling us that all He wants is for us to come closer, to be with Him. The chorus is so simple to understand, yet so difficult to fully understand and obey. All He is asking for is our life, every thing we are, every thing we have, every thing we think and know. I've seen lives come and go like nothing. I've seen lives wasted away in sin and doubt. I've seen lives completely changed around and made new in Christ. Through all this I've seen how worthless our life is, how meaningless we really are. So why do we cling to our lives so preciously when they mean nothing? All I have was given to me from God, it only makes since to give it all back to Him. Our lives mean nothing, until you see first hand the real beauty in everyone, and how giving your life away can help someone finally live by helping them give their life away too. It's more than amazing. It's God.
