[Intro] I searched the world for something worth surrendering to, Then mercy spoke my name and split the darkness through. [Verse 1] I built my throne from everything that left me hollow, Chased every voice that promised me a way to follow. I wore my pride like armor welded to my bones, Still every victory left me empty when alone. Then through the noise, I heard You calling me by name, Not with condemnation, not demanding I explain. You found me buried underneath the weight I chose, And raised my head before I ever asked You to. [Pre-Chorus] Take every crown I thought I needed, Take every idol I defended. Nothing I held ever could hold me, Only Your hands kept reaching for me. [Chorus] HE IS ALL I NEED! AND ALL I EVER WANTED! When everything beneath me breaks, My faith remains unshaken! HE IS ALL I NEED! LET EVERY WALL COME FALLING! Jesus, if I lose the world, I still have everything! [Verse 2] Now when the fear comes clawing at the door again, I know the voice that calls me closer than the end. The grave can threaten, suffering can bare its teeth, But death already lost the moment You walked free. So let the furnace roar, I know who stands beside me, Let every shadow gather, it will never hide Thee. I spent my whole life begging lesser things for peace, Now I have found the One my soul was trying to seek. [Breakdown] Strip it away! Money, approval, every temporary kingdom! Strip it away! Every false god I mistook for freedom! If all I have Is Christ alone, Then I am richer Than I've ever known! [Final Chorus] HE IS ALL I NEED! AND ALL I EVER WANTED! When everything beneath me breaks, My faith remains unshaken! HE IS ALL I NEED! LET EVERY WALL COME FALLING! Jesus, if I lose the world, I still have everything! HE IS ALL I NEED! NO OTHER NAME ABOVE HIM! The hunger that consumed my life Was always reaching for Him! HE IS ALL I NEED! AND ALL I EVER WANTED! Take everything but Jesus Christ, And I will still have everything! [Outro] No throne. No gold. No praise from men. Just Christ. My life. My everything.
