I've had a dollar to my name
I've had friends that walked away
And I've even lost myself a time or two
There were bridges crossed and burned
But through all the wreckage I have learned
There is one thing that I can never lose
If I've got Jesus
I've got all that I could ever need
Take the world away from me
And I'll be ok
If I've got Jesus
There's a hope that's living deep inside
A joy that I could never hide
And a safe place to fall
If I've got Jesus
I got it all
Mmm...
I've seen weakness turn to strength
I've seen failures met with grace
And it's not from what I've done, it's Christ in me
A miracle I can't explain
Oh, He's given me His name
I'm the richest man that I could ever be
If I've got Jesus
I've got all that I could ever need
Take the world away from me
And I'll be ok
If I've got Jesus
There's a hope that's living deep inside
A joy that I could never hide
And a safe place to fall
If I've got Jesus
I got it all
Oh oh
Someday that trumpet's gonna sound
And the King of heaven will ride upon the clouds, coming down
I'll hit my knees, oh Lord, then sings my soul
I'm going home
If I've got Jesus
I've got all that I could ever need
Take the world away from me
And I'll be ok
If I've got Jesus
There's a hope that's living deep inside
A joy that I could never hide
And a safe place to fall
If I've got Jesus
I got it all
If I've got Jesus
I got it all
Mmm...
Mmm...
