All I Need Lyrics
When the day is done And there's no one else around While I'm lying here in bed You're in my heart, You're in my head You're all I need, You're all I need There are a million voices Calling out my name But You're the One I want to hear So make the others disappear You're all I need, You're all I need
You are all I need when I'm surrounded You are all I need if I'm by myself You fill me when I'm empty There is nothing else You're all I need
When the morning comes And Your mercy is renewed There's a fire in my bones I'm not afraid to go alone You're all I need, You're all I need The sun on my face I hear You whisper loud You're still the God that opens seas Every flower, even me You're all I need, You're all I need
I'm drawn to everything that You do Nothing compares with You

Song Description: 'It's one of the simplest things I've ever written, but it is such a powerful claim to make: "You are all I need when I'm surrounded/ You are all I need if I'm by myself." Who would have ever thought that you could experience so much joy when you forget about every other "pressing" matter and cling to Jesus? Every morning I wake up to the promise that everything is fresh and new...c that his mercy is ready to pour over me once again. There are so many other things that are vying for my attention, but when I quiet myself and hush all of the voices that are shouting out my name just so I can hear his gentle voice, I hear him say, "I'm with you."' - Bethany Dillon
