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

"Clothed With Dignity" by Grace Frances: Trading Shame for a New Identity

Your worth was never up for negotiation.  Grace Frances wrote “Clothed With Dignity” from a place most of us recognize (in some form or other) but will rarely admit out loud. She carried old regrets like a second skin, calling herself names that her past mistakes didn’t deserve. “I demonize the girl I was, when she was just trying to survive,” she sings, and that line hurts. Haven’t we all judged ourselves for choices that we made while simply trying to get through the day? Even choices that seemed to be fine in the moment, but proved to be otherwise over time.  Grace’s breakthrough didn't come from fixing herself, but from surrendering… surrendering to God. “You clothe me with dignity,” she declares, describing a moment where self-condemnation lost its grip and grace took over.  Grace’s story is fairly similar to the story found in Isaiah 61:10 —  “I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; h...

"Just Believe" by For Him: When Doubt Isn't Disqualifying

Can you believe without having all the answers? Some people wait at the edge of faith for years, arms crossed, waiting to feel ready. “Just Believe” was written by For Him for exactly that person — the one who wants to trust Jesus but still carries a list of questions. The song grew out of that in-between space, where doubt and faith sit side-by-side and neither one of them wins outright. Gritty Southern-rock guitars carry lyrics that ask a two-thousand-year-old question: “Could Love have worn a human face?” The answer to that question brings purpose and comfort to our lives. The song doesn’t demand certainty before you move. It invites wonder instead. “You don’t have to shape your future // He begins where you can’t reach.” The message and intent of this song make it clear that you don’t need to figure out everything first before you can take a step toward God.  A man quoted in the gospel of Mark understood this tension better than most of us. Desperate for his son to be healed,...

"I've Got Joy" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Why Joy Isn't the Same as Happiness

Sorrow and joy can share the same room. “I’ve Got Joy” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was triggered by a telephone call. Tyler reconnected with an old friend who’d been going through a period of loneliness. Tyler shares: “We talked at length about the season of loneliness he was experiencing, and we discussed a few other topics that are reflected in the verses.” This triggered Tyler to tackle this concept of having Joy, and it became clear that “I’ve Got Joy” isn’t the same as “I’ve Got Happiness” . Joy is more than happiness, and it certainly isn’t a painted-on smile. Tyler makes that distinction on purpose, because he’s writing about the nights he spent “down to my last prayer,” and about sitting “in a room full of people” while feeling completely invisible. He’s writing about all of the kneeling and “begging for the answer to a question I can’t speak.” That’s real, and that’s most of us, on our worst weeks. The chorus takes us back to “joy”. Tyler sings: “I’ve got joy in my lungs, ye...
