| Running On Empty November 12, 2000 Justene Martin |
Running on empty there's nothing left You're at the end of your rope! You're picking up sticks and starting a fire You're fixing to eat your last hope. Just a handful of meal and a few drops of oil You'll eat it and then you'll die. You're ready to throw in the towel, so to speak Was it really just pie in the sky? But the man of God (whoever that is) Challenges you to dig deep within And find the courage to give it away Maybe it'll help others to win. You need a miracle, no denying it's true Or you'll die with your song left unsung. Is it possible? Can the Lord still use you? Was the miracle you all along? So your heart leaps within you you've heard the call You've found a reason to live, All Jesus is asking is to take that new life And give all that you have to give. So your running on empty, but each new day You find as you reach in the store That it never runs out, when you give it away That it comes back, More and more. |
