All I Desire
Rich Gomez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

O Lord, my God
All I desire is You
O Lord, my God
All I desire is You

More precious than silver
More costly than gold
No riches on the earth
compares with You





And what can this world offer
when all I desire is You

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "All I Desire" by Rich Gomez are simple yet profound. The repetition of the phrase "O Lord, my God, all I desire is You" highlights the singer's deep devotion to God. The singer declares that God is more precious than silver and gold, and that no earthly riches compare to Him. This sentiment is a common one in religious music, but the singer's belief in it is palpable. The singer then asks, "What can this world offer when all I desire is You?" This rhetorical question underlines the idea that the singer has found something transcendent in his relationship with God that makes earthly treasures seem insignificant by comparison.


On a deeper level, the song speaks to the idea of spiritual fulfillment. The singer is proclaiming that he has found ultimate satisfaction in his faith and in his relationship with God. This fulfillment is something that is difficult to describe, but the singer's repeated refrain of "all I desire is You" conveys a sense of completeness that he has found in his spiritual life. The song's message is a powerful one, and it will resonate with anyone who has experienced the joy and peace that comes with a strong connection to a higher power.
