Pat Barrett, Dante Bowe - Nothing / Something - Live (CCM)


Pat Barrett, Dante Bowe has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Nothing/Something (Live).

The difference between nothing and something... we all want our actions to mean something. This song about that key ingredient, that one thing that changes the meaning... LOVE. Not just any love... 
Listen to the video and read the lyrics... and find out how Love is the key.

Scripture Reference: Mark 12:31; Matthew 22:36-40

LYRICS:
I could write a melody 
That all of heaven’s choir sings 
But if I don't have love then it means nothing 
I can spit out some holy word
Something that you've never heard 
But If I don’t have love it means nothing 

If I can’t love my neighbor like I love myself
If I won’t move when my brother cries out for help
If I’m too proud to forgive before the sun goes down
Then this life that I’ve been living what does it mean now
At best it all means nothing
Without love it all means nothing

I can dine with kings and queens 
My name go down in history 
But if I don't have love it means nothing 
Take the old and make me new
Show me how to love like You
Cause if I don’t have love it means nothing 

I don't want to sound like a crashing cymbal 
I don't want to be some empty noise 
I’m down on my knees Lord I surrender 
Jesus help me to love with a love like Yours

And then it’ll all mean something 
I want it to all mean something
And then it’ll all mean something 
I want it to all mean something

I want to love my neighbor like I love myself
I want to move when my brother cries out for help
Don’t want to be too proud to forgive before the sun goes down
Then this life that I’ve been living what would it mean now
At best it will all mean something 
With love it all means something 
I hope it all means something 
With love it will all mean something

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...
