Nothing Else to Do


Nothing Else to Do

Many of us have heard the cliché that following the Lord is simple but not necessarily easy. Sometimes it is possible to get caught up in thinking that we need to do lots of “things” to be a “good” Christian. Now there will be a time and place for specifics as the Lord will reveals them to us, but a lot of the Christian life is simply following the Lord. Think about many times in the Gospels when Jesus is calling His disciples (Matthew 4:19, 8:22, 9:9; John 1:43, 21:19); He doesn't tell them, “do a lot of Christian-like activities”; no, He tells them, “Follow Me.” This idea is the main theme for this song, “I have nothing else to do, Lord, I will just follow You.” So much of our life we just need to abide in the Lord, follow where He leads, and cooperate with Him as He works within us and through us to make us and others more like Himself. Also, this song is supposed to be fun, so enjoy! ;)























Nothing Else to Do

1) There's nothing left to fear 'Cause now my Lord is near; There's nothing left to lose, He's all that I need, and I will choose To walk with Him always, Trusting I'll find His grace, I'll follow where He leads, He's all that I need, more than I need. You're all that I need, more than I need, Your voice I'll heed, I'll let You lead, yes, let You lead.

Chorus Jesus, my life You've changed, Everything's rearranged, Since the day I got saved, You started working, growing in my heart; But still Your work is not done, Still, Lord, You have to come Fully make me a son, So keep on changing, shaping me, You are growing more in me, Lord, make me more like You, I want to follow You wherever You would move; I give my life to You, I've nothing else to do, I will follow You.

2) So now I'm letting go, You're all I want to know, Forgetting what lies behind, Now I'm pressing on, to seek and find. Lord, help me to see, You're all I need, You set me free, Yours I will be, take all of me! 

Bridge You are the Man, You have a plan, To take all of me and change what I am; You're the perfect Man with the perfect plan To change the whole world, it's only You who can; Help me, Lord, to pray and wait, to trust, obey, cooperate; Jesus, Lord, You're all I need, Help me turn my eyes to see more of You.
