"Nobody" lyrics
(originally by Casting Crowns)
Well, why You ever chose me
Has always been a mystery
See, all my life, I've been told I belong
At the end of the line
With all the other Not-Quites
And all the Never-Get-It-Rights
But it turns out they're the ones You were looking for
All this time
'Cause I'm just a nobody trying to tell everybody
All about Somebody who saved my soul
And ever since You rescued me
You gave my heart a song to sing
I'm just living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
Well, Moses had stage fright (Yeah)
And David brought a rock to a sword fight
You picked twelve outsiders nobody would've chosen
And You changed the world
Well, the moral of the story is
Everybody's got a purpose
So when I hear that devil start talking to me, saying
"Who do you think you are?" I say
I'm just a nobody trying to tell everybody
All about Somebody who saved my soul
Well, ever since You rescued me
You gave my heart a song to sing
I'm just living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
Now listen
Let me go down, down, down in history
As just another blood-bought faithful member of the family
And if they all forget my name, well, that's just fine with me
I'm just living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
So let me go down, down, down in history (Down in history)
As just another blood-bought faithful member of the family, come on (Family, oh)
And if they all forget my name, well, that's just fine with me
I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus, come on
I'm just a nobody (Hey) trying to tell everybody
All about Somebody who saved my soul (Oh)
Ever since You rescued me
You gave my heart a song to sing
I'm just living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I'm living for the world to see
You ready?
Nobody but Jesus
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Thank y'all
Has always been a mystery

And ever since You rescued me

I'm just living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
