“…Apart from Me you can do nothing…” – John 15:5

My mind is racing like a supercomputer, 

Planning and organising the day ahead with vigour; 

To waste my time meditating on the word, I can ill afford; 

But though I do a hundred things, they are nothing without God. 

 

For all the things that I plan and do for my own exaltation, 

To establish a name for myself and for my self-proclamation; 

Will one day be tested with fire and earn its eternal reward, 

And though I do a hundred things, they are nothing without God. 

 

So, as a branch I cling to Jesus the Vine that nourishes; 

As I pray and meditate on His word, He reveals His purpose; 

To follow my selfish plans and temporary ambitions, I can ill afford;  

For though I do a hundred things, they are nothing without God.
