Lyrics

Come on in and take Your seat
This is where I wanna be
Your presence here is everything, Jesus


You have always been enough
Captivated by Your love
I'll stay here in the presence of Jesus


Now You're in the room
There's nothing left to do
All I wanna do is worship
All I wanna do is worship


Been waiting here for You
And I'm not gonna move
All I wanna do is worship
All I wanna do is worship


Now You're in the room
There's nothing left
(There's nothing left to do)
All I wanna do
(All I wanna do is worship)
That's all I want
(All I wanna do is worship)


Been waiting here
(Been waiting here for You)
I'm not gonna move
(I'm not gonna move)
All I wanna do is
(All I wanna do is worship)
All I wanna do is worship


So, speak
Jesus, speak to me
Speak
Jesus, speak, I'm listening


Speak
(Speak)
We wanna hear from You
(Jesus, speak to me)
Speak to me, speak
(Speak)
Oh, speak
(Jesus, speak)
I'm listening


You have always been enough
Captivated by Your love
I'll stay here in the presence of Jesus


You have always been enough
I'm captivated by Your love
I'll stay here in the presence of Jesus


I'll stay here forever
I'll stay here forever
I'm not gonna move
I'll stay here forever


There's nothing more important
I'll stay here forever
There's nothing more important to me
(I'll stay here forever)


Gonna sit here and go for You
(I'll stay here forever)
I'll receive instruction here
(I'll stay here forever)


Gonna stay right here
But You have always been enough
I'm captivated by Your love
I'll stay here in the presence of Jesus

Meaning & Inspiration

“Mary’s Song” presents worship as remaining near Jesus with undivided attention. The opening welcomes his presence and declares that nothing else is more important. Repeated lines about staying in the room create an atmosphere of patient devotion rather than hurried activity. When the lyric asks Jesus to speak and answers with listening, worship becomes both adoration and readiness to receive instruction. His presence is described as sufficient, and his love as the reason to remain.

The song’s title and posture recall Mary of Bethany sitting at Jesus’ feet while he taught. That Gospel scene supports the lyric’s preference for attentive presence over distraction. Its request for Jesus to speak also resembles Samuel’s response when called by God, though the song directs that listening explicitly toward Christ. The extended repetitions reinforce stillness, expectancy, and commitment. As a worship song, it values communion with Jesus above productivity and portrays lingering in prayer as a fitting response to his love and sufficiency.
