This song means a lot to me. I almost committed suicide when I was a teenager but God gave me this song to remind me that He was there to cast my heart's heaviest problems onto. I will never give up on myself again cause I know He never will.
Me too brother, accidentally and purposely. It never happened tho. Over 15 years later, I'm married to the love I had in high school who I never thought I deserved and we have a daughter 2 years old, when we were told we couldn't have kids. I was also a metal drummer, and I'm playing this song at church in 2 days cause I'm a church drummer now, and a true worshipper of Jesus Christ

… I've had just enough of the spotlight when it burns bright
To see how it gets in the blood
And I've tasted my share of the sweet life and the wild ride
And found a little is not quite enough
… I know how I can stray
And how fast my heart could change
… Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
And any foolish thing my heart holds to
Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You
… I've seen just enough of the quick buys of the best lies
To know how prodigals can be drawn away
I know how I can stray
And how fast my heart could change
… Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
And any foolish thing my heart holds to
Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You
… 'Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to You, compared to You
'Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to You so why surrender all?
… Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
… Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
And any foolish thing my heart holds to
Lord empty me of me so I can be
Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with You
Oh, filled with You, empty me
THE CHRISTIAN ANTHEM!!! Empty ME
Nice song
