Rick Founds + Naomi Raine + Maverick City Music - Jesus At The Center Lyrics

Jesus At The Center is a short worship song that asks for one thing: that Jesus be the center of everything. Its opening lines state that he is at the center of it all, from beginning to end, and the chorus adds that nothing else matters and nothing in this world will do.

The second verse moves from statement to petition with "Jesus, be the center of my life," so the song shifts from describing the place of Christ to asking that it be true personally. The chorus then says that everything revolves around Him, an image of Jesus as the fixed point other things orbit.

The bridge, "From my heart to the Heavens," gathers both movements, and the ending hails Jesus as Saviour and king of all the world. The language reflects Colossians 1:17-18, which describes Christ as before all things and holding all things together, and Philippians 3:8, where Paul counts other gains as loss compared with knowing Christ. The song reads as an act of focus in worship, with its few lines repeated to keep attention on Jesus alone.
