Everything to Me
Sonicflood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
or do I walk a thousand miles
to show You what Your worth
in all I say in all I do
Iâ??m ever short of You
with empty hands I come
a beggars song I sing to You
You are my cup
Youâ??re the spotless lamb
my truest friend
You are my King
You are my peace
Youâ??re the air I breathe
Youâ??re everything to me
am I standing only ankle deep
or do I fear the crashing waves
afraid that I may sink
draw me to the deepest place
that I might worship You
with empty hands I come
a beggars song I sing to You
The lyrics to Sonicflood's "Everything to Me" speak to the singer's relationship with God and the challenges he faces in truly honoring and worshiping him. The first verse asks if the singer is truly showing his love and devotion to God through his words and actions, or if he needs to go to great lengths to demonstrate God's worth. Despite his best efforts, the singer admits that he falls short of truly connecting with God and that he approaches him as a humble beggar with empty hands.
The chorus reinforces the idea that God is everything to the singer, filling him up like a cup and sustaining him like bread. God is not only his friend and king, but also his peace and the very air he breathes. The second verse discusses the singer's fear of the unknown and of sinking in the crashing waves of life. He prays to be drawn into a deeper relationship with God so that he can truly worship him, once again acknowledging his own limitations and need for guidance.
