How can I build Your kingdom, if I'm building my own?
How can You be my treasure, if I'm digging for gold?
How can You be my fire, if my heart has grown cold?
How can You be my future, if I've made this my home?
How can I? How can I?
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
I don't want it all, if it means I lose You
I've tasted and I've seen enough
To know it's You I need
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
If I don't have You
How can I say I need You and live on my own?
How can I say I want You and never come close?
How can I say I surrender and never let go?
How can I say "I love You," to someone I don't know?
How can I? How can I?
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
I don't want it all, if it means I lose You
I've tasted and I've seen enough
To know it's You I need
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
I give You every failure, every dream
And every mountain-top
I give You everything I thought of me
And nail it to the cross
I leave behind me what is ashes
And what will be dust
All I am to You, my God
For all else will be lost
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
I don't want it all, if it means I lose You
I've tasted and I've seen enough
To know it's You I need
I don't want the world, if I don't have You
If I don't have You
