I asked Jesus

I asked Jesus what I could do for him,
   he said nothing.
I asked Jesus where I could go for him,
   he said nowhere.
I asked Jesus what I could say for him,
   he said no words.
I asked Jesus how I could live for him,
   he said you can’t.
I asked Jesus what I could give him,
   he said there was nothing.
I asked Jesus what he needed from me,
   he said there was nothing I could give.

I asked Jesus what he could do for me,
   he said everything.
I asked Jesus where he could go for me,
   he said everywhere.
I asked Jesus what he could say for me,
   he said healing words.
I asked Jesus how he could live for me,
   he said he could die.
I asked Jesus what he could give me,
   he said life.
I asked Jesus what I needed,
   he said…..me.
