Meditational, thought-provoking songs for easy Christian listening...the music of singer-songwriter Nancy Krebs
Welcome to my Soundclick page! I have been a professional actor and singer for all of my adult life. I felt fairly complete doing theatre, films, voice-over work commercials, and teaching. Ever since I was in High School, I also wrote songs--many of them spiritual in nature. I’ve always felt a strong desire to “serve” in some capacity. It wasn’t until 1994, when I turned the process of writing over to God, that all of the avenues that I had been following seemed to come together. I began to write song after song, inspired by the Holy Spirit, singing at a church that supported my fledgling efforts. People kept asking me ‘do you have a cassette or a CD of your songs?” “No”, I would always answer--for the thought of recording never entered my head. Finally, after much soul-searching, my first album, THE JOURNEY, was created, and concerts followed; and more songs followed, and another album followed, and the journey continues. God is not finished yet, and neither am I. The songs I’ve been blessed to write come under the heading of “meditational”, “contemplative”, “inspirational”; and when people listen, they seem to be moved by the sentiments expressed. My fervent hope is that a song will touch someone’s heart, and that heart will be moved to a closer union with God--the Father, who created us, Jesus the Son, who redeemed us, and the Holy Spirit, who sanctifies us.

Story behind the song
I think a lot about what we really need in this life in order to be happy. This song came as a result of such contemplation.
Lyrics
WE NEED YOU O LORD ©Nancy Krebs 2/24/2007 WE CANNOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE THAT ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US. WE CANNOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE FOOD ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US… WE NEED YOUR WORDS AND YOUR LOVE TO FEED US WE NEED THE BREAD THAT IS YOU, O LORD WE NEED YOU O LORD. WE CANNOT BREATHE THIS AIR ALONE THAT ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US WE CANNOT BREATHE THIS AIR ALONE AIR ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US. WE NEED YOUR SPIRIT THE BREATH OF HEAVEN TO BLOW YOUR LIFE OF LOVE INTO US WE NEED YOU O LORD. NOTHING ELSE WILL DO NOTHING LESS THAN YOU NOTHING MORE THAN YOU DO WE NEED, MORE THAN YOU. FILL US WITH YOUR FIRE AND WITH THE DESIRE TO BE ONLY SATISFIED WITH YOU WE CANNOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE THAT ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US. WATER OR AIR OR BREAD ALONE THEY ALONE CAN’T SUSTAIN US… WE NEED YOU NEAR. WE NEED TO KNOW YOU. WE NEED THE BREAD THAT IS YOU, O LORD WE NEED YOU O LORD.
