Lyrics
Verse 1:
When the music fades all is stripped away
And I simply come.
Longing just to bring something that's of worth
That would bless Your heart.
Pre-Chorus:
I'll bring you more than a song for a song in itself
Is not what you have required.
You search much deeper within through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart.
Chorus:
I'm coming back to the heart of worship and it's all about You.
It's all about You Jesus.
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You, It's all about You Jesus.
Verse 2:
King of endless worth. No one could express
How much You deserve.
Though I'm weak and poor, all I have is Yours.
Every single breath.

Meaning & Inspiration
Heart of Worship examines the difference between musical performance and genuine devotion. As the music fades and outward elements are removed, the singer returns with a simple offering and a desire to bless God. The lyric recognizes that a song alone cannot satisfy what God seeks, because divine attention reaches beyond appearances and examines the inner person. Worship is therefore presented as honesty, surrender, and love centered on Jesus.
The second verse deepens that posture by contrasting the King’s immeasurable worth with human weakness and poverty. Nothing offered can equal what God deserves, yet every breath can still be placed at his disposal. The confession of having made worship about the wrong thing adds repentance to the song’s devotion. Its themes closely echo the biblical contrast between outward appearance and the inner life, as well as Jesus’ teaching that true worshipers worship in spirit and truth. The result is a humble prayer for reordered devotion rather than a celebration of musical form.
