Anthony Brown & group therAPy's song "Consumed" is a worship ballad that acknowledges human imperfection and dependence on God's mercy. The lyrics confess that the singer's presence before God is not due to personal righteousness but solely because of God's faithfulness. The repeated refrain highlights that God's compassions are new every morning and that His mercies prevent total destruction. The song culminates in a declaration that all praise belongs to God for His sustaining grace. It reflects themes of gratitude, humility, and reliance on divine mercy, drawing on Lamentations 3:22-23.

Not because I've always made the right decisions
Not because I've stayed within your will
Not because I've always done the things you asked me to
But the only reason I'm here is because of you
Not because I've always made the right decisions
Not because I've stayed within your will
Not because I've always done the things you asked me to
But the only reason I'm here is because of you
And it's only because every morning your compassions for me are new
And it's only because of your mercies that we are not consumed
And it's only because every morning your compassions for me are new
And it's only because of your mercies that we are not consumed
And it's only because every morning your compassions for me are new
And it's only because of your mercies that we are not consumed
And it's only because every morning your compassions for me are new
And it's only because of your mercies that we are not consumed
Oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
Oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
We cry oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
We cry oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
We cry oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
We cry oh oh oh... and the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And the praise goes right there
And it's only because every morning your compassions for me are new
And it's only because of your mercies that we are not consumed
