"Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs." S100
I want to share a very special Love Song with you for this weekend. Listen to it, sing it to Him, and join the discussion in the comment section on what THIS song meant to you and what particularly spoke to your heart.
The Love Songs we publish here are intended for a Lover, not a song sung in church. We are turning from religion to relationship.
If you have a Love Song, please share it in "Post Your Praise" so we can delight and Selah in it one of the Fridays to come." This Friday is just about this song.
One day I was going to work and I started hearing this melody in the subway car and it stayed in my head all day - And when I looked up the translation, I couldn't stop saying: "Everything means nothing, if I don't have You", because you are everything I want, everything I desire, You are the reason for my living!

If I Ain't Got You
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before, but that life's a bore
So full of the superficial
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah
Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be?
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah
Please share in the comment section what part of the song spoke to you.
This part touches my heart so much:
βBut I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, babyβ
Itβs a song that helps us express to Him that yes, HE is everything we need and want in our lives. For me, it also helps me express the confidence I have in His presence and His Love, which are enough to face the adversities of life.β€οΈβπ₯
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
thank you ladies for sharing this song
Some people think that physical things
define what’s inside.
And I’ve been there before, but that life is boring,
so full of superficiality.
I like this phrase because of what we live today. We seek power, money, but that only creates a bigger void.
We just need more of Our Beloved, who completes us and gives us Love, who will truly bring peace and happiness to our lives.
Thank you for this beautiful letter.
