One of my favorite songs performed here by Chris Sligh, a former American Idol contestant. May this be our prayer every day... to empty ourselves so we can be filled with Christ. Have a great day!!
Lyrics:
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
Ive 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
Cuz everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you
Compared to you
Cuz everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you
So I 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.

Great song! I listened to it while I was reading blogs in Google. I always enjoyed him. Happy to see he's still singing!!! Enjoy your day with Chris! Today is my kid's last day of school. Next year they both get on the bus by 6:40!!!
Hi Beth! Beautiful song. I enjoy reading your posts. They are inspiring and funny. Have a great day and God bless. Hugs!
I adore that song. I love that Chris Sligh did not sell out to the Hollywood Machine and stayed true to his faith. Thanks for sharing it!
