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

"I'm Still Going to Praise You" by Die Taube: Choosing Praise in the Waiting

Can worship survive a season without answers?  Some seasons don’t resolve on schedule. “I’m Still Going to Praise You” by Die Taube ( ‘the dove’ ) was born from one of those seasons — infertility sitting alongside a father’s cancer diagnosis, disappointment stacking on disappointment. The song is part of an upcoming album, Pilgrimage, releasing one song per month until December. The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed. The opening line of the song sets the whole tone: “Thank You has no seasons, worship does not wait.” God’s worthiness does not depend on our circumstances. Even when circumstances stay unresolved, we decide to look beyond our circumstances to praise and worship Him.  Notice what the second verse admits. “When I feel like I’ve got nothing and other times so much”  — our praises aren’t conditional on constant victory. The song is honest about fluctuating faith, and pairs it with a steady choice underneat...

"I Need God" by Richard Baś: Because Nothing Else Really Satisfies

Have you ever chased what you thought was peace and come up empty?  “I Need God” by Richard Baś is a song for people who keep searching and never find enough. Richard wanted a Christian song with energy and edge — something that causes listeners to experience certain emotions that are regularly not in the Christian genre. The song opens with restlessness: “These days I’m running from my own shadow,” he sings, “trying to find a peace of mind.” He tries love. He tries drugs. He tries more. Nothing changes. That’s the trap that so many of us already know. We chase one thing, then another, hoping the next thing will finally be enough… But it never really is.  There is a shift in the song. “Jesus has set me free and I, I am free now,” Richard declares. The running stops. The striving stops. Richard names it clearly: “Yeah I need God.”   The song echoes the same message that we read in Psalm 42:1–2: “As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My so...

"There Was Jesus" by Zach Williams and Dolly Parton: Finding Him in the Wreckage

Even in loss, Jesus was already there.  Dolly Parton passed away on August 25, 2026, at age 80, after a brief battle with cancer, surrounded by family in Nashville. For seven decades she sang about faith, poverty, grace, and home — and one of her earlier duets (with Zach Williams) carries a message that fits her passing perfectly. In “There Was Jesus,” Dolly Parton and Zach Williams trade verses about the moments we miss Him most: “Every time I tried to make it on my own // Every time I tried to stand and start to fall.” Life doesn’t wait for permission before it crashes down. “When the life I built came crashing to the ground // When the friends I had were nowhere to be found”  — that’s grief. That’s a hospital room, a phone call you dreaded, a silence where a voice used to be. That’s seeing great people passing away. Where was God in it? “I couldn’t see it then but I can see it now,” the song answers. “There was Jesus.”   Psalm 34:18 says it plainly: “The Lord is near to t...
