Hillsong UNITED - With Everything Lyrics
Lyrics
VERSE 1
Open our eyes
To see the things that make Your heart cry
To be the church that You would desire
Your light to be seen
VERSE 2
Break down our pride
And all the walls we've built up inside
Our earthly crowns and all our desires
We lay at Your feet
PRE CHORUS
Let hope rise
And darkness tremble
In Your holy light
That every eye will see
Jesus our God
Great and mighty to be praised
VERSE 3
God of all days
Glorious in all of Your ways
Oh the majesty the wonder and grace
In the light of Your Name
CHORUS
With everything
With everything
We will shout for Your glory
With everything
With everything
We will shout forth Your praise
CHORUS 2
Our hearts they cry
Be glorified
Be lifted high above all names
For You our King
With everything
We will shout forth Your praise

WITH EVERYTHING - LIVE IN MIAMI - Hillsong UNITED
Meaning & Inspiration
Hillsong UNITED’s “With Everything,” released in 2012 on the *Live In Miami* album, is a powerful declaration of surrender and devotion, a song that invites listeners to lay their lives down entirely at the feet of Christ. Its raw vulnerability and soaring worshipfulness speak to a profound understanding of what it truly means to follow Jesus, not just in grand gestures, but in the quiet, everyday moments. The core message echoes the apostle Paul's exhortation in Romans 12:1, where he urges believers to present their bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is their spiritual act of worship. This isn't a suggestion; it's a foundational principle for a life fully lived for God. The song beautifully captures the essence of offering *everything* – our thoughts, our actions, our desires, even our very breath – as an act of worship. It’s a song that dismantles the idea of compartmentalized faith, reminding us that every facet of our being is meant to be surrendered to the One who first loved us. This complete offering aligns with Jesus’ own teachings when He declared in Matthew 22:37, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." The song’s impassioned plea to give everything isn't about earning favor, but about responding to the immeasurable grace we have received. It’s a testament to the transformative power of recognizing God's sovereignty and goodness, a recognition that naturally leads to an outpouring of everything we are. The very act of singing “With Everything” can become a form of prayer, a conscious choice to align our will with God’s, acknowledging that in Him we find our true purpose and fulfillment. It is a call to a radical, all-encompassing love for God, a love that permeates every corner of our existence, mirroring the covenant love described in Psalm 139:1-4, where David marvels at God’s intimate knowledge of him, from his very thoughts to his daily routines. This depth of surrender, the offering of one's entire life, is the ultimate response of a heart truly captivated by the love of God, as exemplified by Jesus Himself throughout His earthly ministry.
