My prayer is that He be my Everything

They have been playing this song during worship. I have found it to be amazing and sing it throughout the day to remind me that God should be in every area of my life:

God in my living
There in my breathing
God in my waking
God in my sleeping

God in my resting
There in my working
God in my thinking
God in my speaking

Be my everything
Be my everything
Be my everything
Be my everything

God in my hoping
There in my dreaming


God in my watching
God in my waiting

God in my laughing
There in my weeping
God in my hurting
God in my healing

Christ in me
Christ in me
Christ in me the hope of glory
You are everything

Christ in me
Christ in me
Christ in me the hope of glory
Be my everything

"Everything" Tim Hughes

I've had that song running through my heart, too, lately!

Hi. I don't remember how I found your blog, but I've been lurking around for a while.

This song reminds me of St. Patrick's Breastplate...do you have any idea if it's supposed to?

Its chorus goes:
Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort me and restore me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
Christ to woo me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me

Anyway, I love the St. Patrick song and was just wondering...
