Elevation Worship + Chandler Moore + Tiffany Hudson - More Than Able Lyrics

Lyrics

When did I start to forget

All of the great things you did

When did I throw away faith for the impossible

How did I start to believe

You weren’t sufficient for me

Why do I talk myself out of seeing miracles

You are more than able

Who am I to deny what the Lord can do

Now I see all that I have

And I’ve got my confidence back

I put my trust in the one who still does miracles

You do miracles

You are more than able

Who am I to deny what the Lord can do

Can you imagine

with all of the faith in the room

what the Lord can do, what the Lord can do

It’s gonna happen

Just let the Way Maker through

He’s gonna move, He’s gonna move

Anything is possible

Who am I to deny what the Lord can do

I’ve come a long way

I’ve seen how you work

There’s so much goodness and grace

Much more than I deserve

I know who I am

I can’t stay where I’m at

We’ve come this far by faith

And I just can’t turn back

You’re not done with me yet

There’s so much more to the story

You’re not done with me yet

More Than Able (feat. Chandler Moore & Tiffany Hudson) | Elevation Worship

Meaning & Inspiration

The worship anthem "More Than Able" by Elevation Worship, featuring the powerful voices of Chandler Moore and Tiffany Hudson, arrived on March 27, 2023, as a single from the album *More Than Able (feat. Chandler Moore & Tiffany Hudson) - Single*. This release immediately established itself not just as a piece of music, but as a profound declaration of faith, aiming to re-anchor believers in the unchanging truth of God's boundless capacity. At its core, the song journeys from a place of spiritual amnesia and doubt to a resounding affirmation of God's omnipotence and unwavering faithfulness, reminding us that our human limitations are no match for His divine ability.

The narrative of "More Than Able" begins with a poignant series of self-interrogation, echoing the internal battles many face in their walk of faith. The opening lines, questioning "When did I start to forget All of the great things you did" and "When did I throw away faith for the impossible," cut straight to the heart of spiritual forgetfulness. This sentiment reflects moments when the weight of present circumstances overshadows past victories and divine interventions, much like the psalmist who had to remind himself to "remember the deeds of the Lord" (Psalm 77:11-12). The introspection continues as the song delves into the insidious ways we can convince ourselves of God's insufficiency, asking "How did I start to believe You weren’t sufficient for me?" and "Why do I talk myself out of seeing miracles?" This introspective honesty serves as a mirror, challenging us to confront our own tendencies to lean on finite understanding rather than embracing the truth that "nothing will be impossible with God" (Luke 1:37), and that His "grace is sufficient" (2 Corinthians 12:9) for all our needs.

The song’s foundational truth, the declaration "You are more than able," emerges as a powerful antidote to this self-doubt. This repeated affirmation isn't merely a catchy chorus; it's a theological bedrock, drawing directly from scriptures that portray God as infinitely capable. The line, "Who am I to deny what the Lord can do," serves as a rhetorical question that humbly re-centers focus from human limitations to divine sovereignty, aligning with Job's confession, "I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted" (Job 42:2). This powerful statement pushes against our tendency to put God in a box, reminding us of Ephesians 3:20, which says He is "able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think."

As the song progresses, the tone shifts from questioning to confident resolve. "Now I see all that I have And I’ve got my confidence back" marks a turning point, a spiritual awakening where past experiences of God's goodness reignite conviction. This renewed trust is placed squarely "in the one who still does miracles," emphasizing God's unchanging nature and His active involvement in our lives, a consistent theme throughout the Bible, as Malachi 3:6 assures us, "For I the Lord do not change." The bridge then opens up to a collective vision, asking, "Can you imagine with all of the faith in the room what the Lord can do?" This invites a communal expectation of God's movement, fostering a sense of shared anticipation, recalling Jesus' words, "where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them" (Matthew 18:20). The subsequent declaration, "It’s gonna happen Just let the Way Maker through," confidently asserts that God is at work, ready to "make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert" (Isaiah 43:19). The resounding proclamation that "Anything is possible" further reinforces the core message, echoing Mark 9:23, "All things are possible for one who believes."

The final section of the song offers a profound testimony of perseverance and God's enduring faithfulness. "I’ve come a long way I’ve seen how you work There’s so much goodness and grace Much more than I deserve" speaks to a personal history with God, acknowledging His unwavering kindness and undeserved favor, aligning with the truth that "the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end" (Lamentations 3:22-23). This personal experience then fuels a forward-looking commitment: "I know who I am I can’t stay where I’m at We’ve come this far by faith And I just can’t turn back." This reflects a spiritual maturity that understands God’s progressive work in a life, embracing the call to press onward toward the future God has planned, as urged in Philippians 3:13-14. The song culminates in a powerful declaration of God’s ongoing redemptive work: "You’re not done with me yet There’s so much more to the story." This is a deeply encouraging truth, affirming that God, who "began a good work in you will bring it to completion" (Philippians 1:6). "More Than Able" is ultimately an inspiring call to remember, trust, and declare the limitless power of God, reminding every individual that their story is still being written by a divine Author who is always more than capable.
