About This Song:
God never promised that once one becomes a Christ follower life would be easy. “On the contrary,” says Jeff. “We are challenged every day by God to grow in our obedience to Him regardless of the situation. This is always hardest during times of struggle, pain, or hurt.” That’s what the next song, the title track, Not Here for Me, is about. The hardest times are when we are most challenged to turn to Him first, to trust Him, and to worship Him in our sorrow, or pain, or defeat, or betrayal, or whatever trial we are going through. It’s during these times especially that God is with us, holding us up, carrying our burden. (Psalm 57: 1-3).
lyrics
NOT HERE FOR ME
VERSE
Today I’m not here for me
Even though I’m broken, hurting, and pained
It’s all about Your Kingdom come
It’s all about Your Holy Name
VERSE 2
Some people they think I’m strong
But I can only barely stand
I’m standing here, but not for long
And only by the strength of Your hand
CHORUS
With open arms, lifted hands, and down on bended knee
I don’t have much, but it’s all Yours, I’m not here for me
I am Yours
Not here for me
VERSE 3
I’m grateful that I know Your Son
I know that He died for me
Because of Him the war’s been won
And I have a Hope to be free
VERSE 4
Despite this awful state I’m in
I know there’s something I must do
I’m letting go of all that’s been
I give it up to worship You
CHORUS
With open arms, lifted hands, and down on bended knee
I sing for You, and lift You high, ‘cause I’m not here for me
I am Yours
Not here for me
