Cory Asbury's 'Nothing More Than You' is a worship song expressing awe at God's unconditional love. The lyrics contrast human unworthiness with God's choice to love and save, referencing the cross and resurrection. The singer marvels that the King of Heaven would pursue a 'fool' and pull them from the grave. The song emphasizes grace, surrender, and the desire for nothing more than God. It echoes themes of the prodigal son and God's relentless love.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I need words, deeper than the ocean
And I need a voice, that's bigger than the sky
And I need a song, that's worthy of Your nail scars
To sing of the love, that took a chance on me
'Cause this is more than I could ask for and more than I could dream
The One who made the world somehow thinks the world of me
The highest King of Heaven chose to love a fool
I don't understand it, but I know I want nothing more than You
And I thought God, was further than horizons
And I thought grace, was just beyond my reach
But You said my life, was worthy of Your nail scars
So I'll sing like it was, 'cause You took a chance on me
Now this is more than I could ask for, more than I could dream
The One who made the world somehow thinks the world of me
The highest King of Heaven chose to love a fool
I don't understand it, but I know I want nothing more than You
Nothing more than You
When I was at my lowest, You still were on Your throne
And when I was still a long way off, You ran to bring me home
When I was prone to wander, You loved me anyway
When I was six feet under, You pulled me from the grave, yeah
Now this is more than I could ask for and more than I could dream
The One who made the world somehow thinks the world of me
The highest King of Heaven chose to love a fool
I don't understand it, but I know I want nothing more than You
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
I want nothing more than You
