Take my heart, take my will
I give it all, I want more of You

In Anthony Evans feat. Tamela Mann's worship song "Take Over," the ultimate desire of the singers is expressed in the repeated chorus of "All we want is You, Take over, Take over, 'Til we are consumed, By nothing, nothing else but You." The focus of the song is that the only thing the singers want is more of God in their lives, to the point where they are completely consumed by Him. The lyrics express a deep longing for God to take control of every aspect of their lives, including their minds, hearts, and wills, so that they can be fully surrendered to Him. The use of the phrase "take over" implies a sense of power and sovereignty, acknowledging that only God is capable of completely transforming and changing their lives
The repeated chorus underscores the central message of the song, which is that there is nothing more important than God's presence in our lives. The bridge of the song expands on this idea, with the singers declaring "Lord take over, take over, Lord take over, take over" multiple times. This repetition reinforces the message that we cannot achieve this level of surrender on our own, and that we need God to take control.
Overall, "Take Over" is a powerful worship song that expresses a deep longing for God's presence and power in our lives, reminding us that only God can truly transform and change us.
