Everyday
Song Meaning
BeBe Winans frames devotion as a daily discipline rather than a single decision: "everyday I'm living my life to please You... in my heart I'm singing Your praises, every beat and every part." The song never specifies what the pleasing looks like in practice — it stays fixed on the relationship itself, not a to-do list.
The verses locate that relationship in ordinary gratitude: "it's the little things You see that mean so much to me," and in rescue from despair — "turn my sky from gray, then You wipe my tears away." The bridge adds a note of being found rather than finding: "when I knew no one could love me, You found a way somehow."
Colossians 3:23's instruction to "work heartily, as for the Lord" sits behind the song's everyday framing of worship, and Psalm 86:12's "I will praise you... with my whole heart" is close kin to the chorus's own praise language. Winans makes devotion sound less like an event and more like a pulse.
Time I spend with You
Makes me feel that I can do
The impossible, yeah
It's the little things You see
That mean so much to me
Makes You incredible, yes it does
I don't know how I ever lived without You
You mean everything to me, now
Everyday I'm living my life to please You, yes
In every way 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
In my heart I'm singing Your praises
Every beat and every part, 'cause I want You to know
And show how much I do
'Cause I do
Hard to concede and at times I still believe
That I'm dreamin', dreamin'
Turn my sky from gray
Then You wipe my tears away
And gave me reason, yes You did
I don't know how I ever lived without You
You mean all the world to me
That's why
Everyday I'm living my life to please You, yes
In every way, 'cause I want You to know
That I love and need You
In my heart I'm singing Your praises
Every beat and every part, 'cause I want You to know
And show how much I do
'Cause I do
My love, I pledge to You
The happiness I long for
Has come true
And if ever I've been sure of any one thing
It's here and now
When I knew no one could love me
You found a way somehow
That's why
Everyday I'm living my life to please You, yes
In every way, 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
In my heart I'm singing Your praises
Every beat and every part, 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
Everyday I'm living my life to please You, yes
In every way, 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
In my heart I'm singing Your praises
Every beat and every part, 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
Everyday I'm living my life to please You, yes
In every way, 'cause I want You to know
I love and need You
In my heart I'm singing Your praises
Every beat and every part, 'cause I want You to know
And show how much I do
'Cause I really really do
Time I spend with You
Makes me feel that I can do
The impossible, yea
