Lyrics and translation
Original
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it (oh)
You are everything, everything to me (oh)
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it (ooh)
You are everything, everything (yeah)
Look, I don't need no peace and quiet, I just need a peace of mind
Wrote this for the broken hearts, they can have a peace of mine
When I said the sinner's prayer, I didn't feel no change inside
This evil knockin' at my door, Jesus told me, "Stay inside"
Now I think I got it, now I think I get it
God was waitin' on me even though it took a minute (wow)
Took all of my failures and erased it
Told me He ain't never late, it's just that I'm impatient
Thought I couldn't face it
People hopin' that I fell instead of prayin' for me
They just tellin' folks I'm goin' to hell
But You never quit on me, love me with a passion
Love me like I'm first even when I come in last
Last shall be first and the first shall be last
Past get erased, and the present, it'll pass
Thank You for Your love 'cause Your love is everlastin'
I'm just glad to know You'll resurrect me from the casket, Jehovah
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it
You are everything, everything to me
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it
You are everything, everything to me
Look, uh, what am I to say that I ain't said about a million times?
How You rescued me from darkness, I was livin' blind
I ain't listen to Your voice, but You kept on sendin' signs
I was fightin' for my soul, You just told me, "Give it time"
Talkin' out the side of my face
They told me, "Taste and see the Lord is good," I'm walkin' by faith
Remember strugglin' my whole life, just maintainin'
Tryna nurse all of these wounds, doin' the same things
Man, Your love is so good to me, Your glory reigns
Tears taste better when you growin' from the pain
Know You're workin' on me when it feel like nothin's changin'
I just needed savin', I just needed savin'
And Your grace so amazin' (amazin')
Got my face to the pavement (pavement)
Your blood was the payment (payment)
Your blood was my payment
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it (I can't deny it)
You are everything, everything to me (oh)
Lord of the highest, I can't deny it
You are everything, everything to me
