All I Need Lyrics

[Chorus - Chris Lee]
You're all that I need
The simple things you do for me you keep comin' through
I must say that I'm impressed
I know you love the whole world, seems I'm the only one you know
'Cause you're so personal
You got me sayin' like oooohh, because you're fillin' my cup
Oooohhh, I just can't get enough
So let it be known, wouldn't trade your love for nothin'
You see, you're all that I need

[Verse 1 - Flame]
Lord you're so holy, in a league of your own
You didn't owe me but remember you took Francis Jones
You gave me everything when my grandmother died
The greatest gift of all, you when you opened my eyes
Lord my heart was broke seein' her in there dead
In the hospital doctor pronouncing her dead
You took my best friend, at the time I was blind
Hard to look ahead, hard to put the past behind
But like Isaiah 6 when King Uzziah died
I saw you Lord, seated on the throne lifted high
I saw you Lord, in a way I never seen before
I saw that you were love, yes and I wanted you more

[Chorus - Chris Lee]

[Verse 2 - Flame]
Lord you know its true, I love my momma and daddy
September 16th was the day they had me
And before I met you I gave them a hard time
Runnin' away from home, comin' to the crib high
But yet they kept lovin' me, lovin' me, now I see
That through my parents love you were pursuing me
Through all the drama and all the pain
They demonstrated grace until the ceiling caved
Then you saved me Lord, never forget the day
Thanks for carin' for me through Caroline and Sammy Gray
Now I wanna honor him like Psalm 127
Can't wait to worship with Him for eternity in heaven

[Chorus - Chris Lee]

[Verse 3 - Flame]
Praise God for April 5th, 2008
Married my best friend, Crystal Gray, that day was great
Used to be it was so afraid of gettin' married
I can't lie ya'll, your boy was pretty scary
But God used my baby to come push out my fear
Thought I pushed her away, but she was still here
And then a real tear fell from my eyes
Because through Crystal's love, I started to see my God
Because through Crystals love, I started to see His grace,
I was overwhelmed, literally fell on my face
Now I would die for her, give her my everything
Not just the wedding ring, thank you Lord now let us sing

[Chorus - Chris Lee]

[Vamp - Chris Lee]
I don't ever want to be without you again
Lover of my soul, King of the world but you call me friend
And all the people you put in my life
You used death to open up my eyes
Now I see the grace you show me through my wife
Paved the way for me to say ...

[Chorus - Chris Lee]

Amerie Rogers, known professionally as Amerie, is an African American-Korean international R&B star. Amerie has released four albums. Her 2002 debut album "All I Have" was highly acclaimed by critics as was her 2nd album "Touch". In 2005, Ameriie burst back onto the music scene with her fourth single "1 Thing", which was used as the theme song for the Will Smith movie "Hitch".

"1 Thing" went to the top of the charts in various international markets, including the US, UK and others around the world. It earned her a Grammy nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance (the album "Touch" was also nominated for the "Best Contemporary R&B Album" Grammy ). The album sold an estimated 800,000 copies worldwide and went gold in the US and silver in the UK.

Her third album 'Because I Love It' was released in the UK , Europe and Asia. The single "Take Control" was released, and enjoyed international success. The second single "Gotta Work" did not fare as well in the charts, despite receiving heavy airplay on UK and European music video channels. The album has sold a combined total of 310,000 copies worldwide and is her most critically acclaimed album.

In late 2007, was reported that Ameriie had left her label Columbia Records, and signed with the Island Def Jam Music Group, and is currently working on her next studio album, executively produced by Bryan Michael Cox.

Recently on her Twitter account, Ameriie revealed that she has been secretly recording new music in Atlanta, Georgia, and that a late summer July/August release date is confirmed, with a possible 1st single in late May, early June. It has also been revealed that the album will be in fact a concept album. The final track listing, album art and release date will be confirmed after Def Jam launches the albums promotional campaign later after the 1st single is sent for radio ads.

Ameriie revealed the album title to be changed from 'Breakups To Makeups' to 'In Love & War'. Ameriie also announced that her first single off the album will be titled "Why R U?" produced by The Buchanans. The single premiered online in the week of May 11th and received fairly mixed reviews. The track itself is even compared to Mary J. Blige's "What's The 411?" and "My Life" album, because of the old school feel.

Amerie changed her artist name to Ameriie (extra I) in 2010. She said that it gave her more positive energy as an artist. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
