The Acappella Company - You Are Everything Lyrics
Lyrics
Chorus 1:
You are everything
You are my song and the message I bring
You are everything
You are reason I sing
Wholly and totally and completely
Wrapped up and caught up in you
Everything you do, you do so sweetly
That's why I'm singing of
Chorus 2:
You are everything (you are my song)
You are my song and the message I bring
You are everything (you are the song that I sing)
You are reason I sing
Time after time you have been forgiving
So understanding of me
You are compassionate and I need you
I feel completely free
Repeat Chorus 2
I want to live with you
Spend my whole life with you
Share
Hopes and dreams with you
Reach for the stars with you, you
Chorus 3:
You are everything (you are my song)
You are my song and the message I bring
You are everything (you're my reason to love and to hope, you're the reason to sing)
You are reason I sing

Meaning & Inspiration
The Acappella Company's "You Are Everything," brought to life by Praise & Harmony in their forthcoming September 1, 2025 release, delivers a powerful and profound declaration of faith, establishing God as the absolute center of existence. This song is not merely a collection of verses but a heartfelt worship experience, articulating a deep spiritual surrender and an unwavering devotion that resonates with the core tenets of Christian belief. It serves as a beautifully articulate prayer, a testimony, and an invitation to recognize the Creator's encompassing presence in every aspect of life.
The central theme of "You Are Everything" is the magnificent sovereignty and all-sufficiency of God, making Him the source and substance of a believer's very being. The opening lines immediately establish this theological bedrock, declaring God as "my song and the message I bring," and the ultimate "reason I sing." This powerful affirmation echoes numerous Scriptural passages that portray God as our strength and our song, much like Exodus 15:2 declares, "The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation." It speaks to a life where praise is not just an act, but the very breath and purpose of one's existence, a message consistent with Psalm 104:33, which states, "I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being." The song cultivates an understanding that our deepest expressions, our very reasons for joy and artistic output, originate from and point back to Him.
As the song unfolds, it moves beyond a simple declaration to express an intimate, complete engulfment in God's presence. Phrases like "wholly and totally and completely wrapped up and caught up in you" speak to a spiritual immersion that calls to mind Paul's words in Galatians 2:20, "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me." This is a profound statement of surrender, where the individual self recedes, and the divine takes precedence. The assertion that "Everything you do, you do so sweetly" tenderly acknowledges God's inherent goodness and grace in His every action, reflecting Psalm 34:8, "Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him." It’s an appreciation for the gentle, loving hand of God that guides and sustains, even in the midst of life's complexities.
The song then shifts its focus to the unfathomable character of God, highlighting His boundless mercy and understanding. The lyrics affirm, "Time after time you have been forgiving, so understanding of me," which beautifully encapsulates the consistent grace found throughout the Bible. This line directly mirrors the comforting assurance of 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness," and Psalm 103:10, which reminds us that God "does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities." It acknowledges human frailty and God’s unending patience and compassion, affirming that "You are compassionate and I need you." This recognition of needing God resonates with Matthew 6:33, encouraging us to "seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." This divine compassion is the wellspring from which the believer draws a sense of complete liberation, articulating the feeling of being "completely free." This freedom is the spiritual emancipation promised in John 8:36, "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed," a freedom from sin, condemnation, and the burdens of the world.
The ultimate desire expressed in "You Are Everything" is for an eternal, intimate fellowship with God. The lines "I want to live with you, spend my whole life with you, share hopes and dreams with you, reach for the stars with you" transcend earthly relationships, portraying a yearning for unending communion with the Divine. This longing echoes the promise of eternal life and fellowship with Christ found in John 14:3, "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." The idea of sharing hopes and dreams and reaching for the stars with God speaks to a life lived in purposeful partnership with the Creator, understanding that our aspirations are best realized when aligned with His divine will, as Philippians 4:13 reminds us, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." Ultimately, the song culminates in the declaration that God is not just the reason to sing, but "my reason to love and to hope." This powerful concluding statement encapsulates the essence of Christian living, where all love originates from God (1 John 4:19, "We love because he first loved us") and all true hope is anchored in Him (Romans 15:13, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit"). "You Are Everything" by The Acappella Company, as delivered by Praise & Harmony, is a deeply encouraging and biblically rich anthem, compelling believers to acknowledge God's paramount position in their lives and inspiring a fuller, more devoted walk of faith.
