All I Need Lyrics

Somewhere on some distant shore
A boy rises up with the dawn
His bed is a mat on the floor
He kneels in the dirt with a song
Gives thanks to his God up above
With his simple offering of love
He has nothing on Earth to his name
But with all of his heart, he starts to singAll I need, all I need, all I need is You, Lord
I've got everything
All I need, all I need, all I need is You, Lord
I've got everything
A woman steps out for some air
And catches the still setting sun
Remembers when he was still there
They married when she was still young
And when she looks back on their years
There's sorrow and joy in her tears
No one here on earth bears her name

Still she lifts up her head and starts to sing
All I need, all I need, all I need is You, Lord
I've got everything
All I need, all I need, all I need is You, Lord
I've got everything
So come wrap me up in Your love
You are forever enough
I've got all I need, all I need, all I need in You, Lord
You are all I'll ever need
Bread alone cannot sustain us
The earth below cannot contain us
We are made whole in the One who made us
So sing, sing, sing it outYou are everything
You are all I'll ever need
I've got everything
God, You're all I'll ever need
