Royal Ruckus - Empty
© copyright 1998, Jamey Bennett

CHORUS: my hands are empty and my heart is bare/ things are at their worst and nobody cares/ the pain gets deeper I fell for the ploy/ I let situations hurt me and steal my joy/ my hands are empty and my heart is bare/ things are at their worst and nobody cares/ oh Lord God I know you have my back/ please open up my heart and remove the lack/

VERSE: nobody knows the trouble I've seen/ nobody knows but Jesus the King/ nobody knows what I've gone through/ nobody knows Lord none but you/ the pain in my heart hurts like nothing else/ I should come unto you but I reach in myself/ my heart is really twisted but I couldn't see that/ you still stood in the flames with me like Shadrach/ there are so many things that I wanna say/ so many things on my mind today/ but instead I bow down prostrate I lay/ with my arms outstretched singing have Thine Own way/ have Thine Own way Lord it's all Yours/ nothing I can do so my face is on the floor/ You are shown stronger when I am weak/ create in me a clean heart be all that I seek/

CHORUS: my hands are empty and my heart is bare/ things are at their worst and nobody cares/ the pain gets deeper I fell for the ploy/ I let situations hurt me and steal my joy/ my hands are empty and my heart is bare/ things are at their worst and nobody cares/ oh Lord God I know you have my back/ please open up my heart and remove the lack/
