The Tribe never released music to the mainstream, secular market but remained consistently popular among proponents of contemporary Christian music. The band went through various incarnations that included various members including Cameron Dante, Andy Hawthorne, Lindsey West, and Tim & Emma Owen.
Their music was almost exclusively produced by Manchester-based Zarc Porter. The Tribe were part of a wider Christian charity called ‘The Message Trust’ who has gone on to spawn other music groups such as ‘BlushUK’ and ‘LZ7’ and continues to actively proselytise to children across the Manchester region.
Everything I Need
The World Wide Message Tribe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What would I do
I'll live in fear no longer
Now I have you
I no longer feel like
I'm alone His mighty
Hand leading me to my rightful home
He keeps encouraging me to be a new man
Everything I need
You give it to me
And when my life is over
Where will I go
My love for you grows stronger
Now that I know
Say 'S' for the saviour that took a stand
Say 'O' for the one that can heal this land
Say 'N' for the new generation that can Yes
He's the son of God and he's the son of man
He's loving me, holding me, listening and
Moulding me Heaven is calling me into his
Holy hand I've seen the sun that's rising
To finish this greed 'cause you are everything
In my life that I need
