Casting Crowns: Nobody

By: Jeffrey Wong

‘Cause I’m just a nobody trying to tell everybody
All about Somebody who saved my soul
Ever since You rescued me, You gave my heart a song to sing
I’m living for the world to see nobody but Jesus

Compared to God, we are really nobody. We did not do anything to be saved, but God still loves us so much that by His grace, He offered salvation to us through Jesus. So let’s not become conceited and think that we earned our salvation through our works.

This is a song that reminds us that we all have one purpose in life and that is to live your life so that people see Jesus. We are all nobodies who are trying to tell everybody about how Jesus can save them too.

Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world’s eyes or powerful or wealthy when God called you. Instead, God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful. God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important. As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God. God has united you with Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy, and he freed us from sin. Therefore, as the Scriptures say, “If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:26-31
