You
Tim Hughes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Deeper than the ocean deep
Higher than the stars above you are
Brighter than the blazing sun
Louder than the screaming crowd
Stronger than the power of death you are
In the Heavens on the Earth
And these words are not enough
To tell of who You are
Who can know the mind of God?
Who can understand your ways?
And these words are not enough
To tell of your great name
Your love can melt the hardest heart
Your words can bring the dead to life
Nothing is impossibe for You
Awesome God, Humble king
You terrify yet welcome in
Your glory echoes all around the world
In the Heavens on the Earth
There is no one like You god
And these words are not enough
To tell of who You are
Who can know the mind of God?
Who can understand Your ways?
And these words are not enough
To tell of Your great name
You, You, You
There's always You, You, You
Unbreakable
Unshakable
Unbeatable
You, You, You
There's always You, You, You
Take the world
But give me You
Lord Jesus You
In the Heavens on the Earth
There's is no one like You God
And these words are not enough
To tell of who You are
Who can know the mind of God?
Who can understand Your ways?
And these words are not enough
To tell of Your great name
The song “You” by Tim Hughes is a beautiful expression of the greatness, power, love and beauty of God. The lyrics are centered around how God is bigger than anything we can ever imagine or fathom. God is compared to the air we breathe in, the ocean and the stars, implying His vastness and infinite nature. The song also highlights the fact that God’s greatness cannot be fully understood by human beings since His ways are higher than ours. The lyrics also acknowledge that God’s love has the power to transform the hardest of hearts and bring the dead to life.
The chorus emphasizes the idea that there is nothing that can compare to God. His power, strength and glory are unparalleled and the words used to describe him are not enough to truly capture His magnificence. The repetition of the word “You” creates a sense of intimacy with God, as if the singer is speaking directly to Him, affirming that God is always present and the focus of our lives.
Overall, the song “You” is a beautiful combination of praise, worship and adoration for God. It reminds us of how great God is and encourages us to focus on Him and His greatness.

Awesome song!!!
Rodney Agape
Worship music is, 90% of the time, better on the live versions. The live version of this song from the Soul Survivor series {2004} is much more powerful. A great song as usual from Mr Hughes.
