All About You

I/we wrote this to sing tomorrow morning in worship in conjunction with the sermon "It's All About Who?"

All About You
by Jim & Wendy Gambini

How many times have I said, "I'll sing for you, Jesus"?
And how many times have I said, "I'm all a-bout you"?
I love to sing your songs of love
If I like the style and key.
So maybe I'm just really about me.

How many times have I said my prayers to you, Je-sus?
And how many times have I said, "I'm all a-bout you"?
I praise you for your truth and grace
But not for my agony.
So maybe I'm just really about me.

So many times I've made the vow
I'll live my life for you
And if I need to lay it down,
I'll gladly die for you.
But I still choose when and how,
Not this way and not right now.
Hypocrisy lives deep in me.
Consume me with your holy fire.

How many times have you said, "My cross I bore for you”?
And how many times have you said, "My heart is for you"?
So I'll trust you and I'll bear the cross
And not live by how I feel.
And maybe I can really,
Maybe I can honestly,
Just maybe I can truly be
All about you.
