If it weren't for you Lord, I don't know where I'd be
I could fill the hours, but never fill the need
I would still be searching looking for the truth
But I found a new life, that only comes from you

Everything I do let it be in your name
Let it be for your glory let it be for you
Everything I say let it be in your name
Let it be to your glory let it be for your sake
Cuz I wanna please you in everything I do

I want the world to see you, when they look at me
I want the world to hear you in every word I speak
So let my words be your words and my actions too
So they'll find the new life that I have found in you

Everything I do let it be in your name
Let it be for your glory let it be for you
Everything I say let it be in your name
Let it be to your glory let it be for your sake
Cuz I wanna please you in everything I do

You filled up my empty heart
You give me strength so that I can go on
You're the reason that my life has changed
That's why I say

Everything I do let it be in your name
Let it be for your glory let it be for you
Everything I say let it be in your name
Let it be to your glory let it be for your sake
Cuz I wanna please you in everything I do
(repeat 2X)

Behind the Song:
"I wrote the chorus to this song while sitting outside in the sunshine (a favorite pastime of mine) just wanting to give God everything, every aspect of my life, all I do and say." - Rebecca St. James
