Empty Me Lyrics - Singles - Chris Sligh

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 

[Chorus] 

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 

I've 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 

[Chorus] 

'Cause everything is a lesser thing 

Compared to You, compared to You 

'Cause everything is a lesser thing 

Compared to You so why 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 

Oh, filled with You, empty me
