Used To This
Song Meaning
Elevation Worship, Maverick City Music, Naomi Raine, and Brandon Lake spend most of this one refusing urgency on purpose: "time stands still whenever I'm with You... there's no rush, not in a hurry, it's okay to take it slow." The song's whole posture is unhurried presence rather than a request being made quickly.
"Lord forgive me, I've been too busy trying to do this on my own" names the actual confession underneath all the stillness — busyness as its own kind of independence from God, not just a scheduling problem.
"If this is a glimpse of heaven, I could get used to this" treats a quiet moment of God's presence as a preview rather than an isolated feeling, echoing the psalmist's confidence that fullness of joy is found specifically in God's presence. Moses' request that God's own presence go with him, rather than settling for guidance alone, sits behind a song more interested in staying close than getting anything accomplished.
Time stands still
Whenever I'm with You
No more important place to go
There's no rush
Not in a hurry
It's ok to take it slow
Minutes turning into hours
Doesn't really matter
I just want You
You're the only one I'm after
Spirit come in power
I just want You
Lord forgive me
I've been too busy
Trying to do this on my own
Your embrace
Is what I've been missing
And I don't want to let it go
Minutes turning into hours
Doesn't really matter
I just want You
You're the only one I'm after
Spirit come in power
I just want You
I just want You
I just want You
Nothing compares to You
Nothing comes close
If this is a glimpse of heaven
I could get used to this
I could get used to this
The fragrance of Your presence
I could get used to this
I could get used to this
Minutes turning into hours
Doesn't really matter
I just want You
You're the only one I'm after
Spirit come in power
I just want You
I just want You
I just want You
Nothing compares to You
Nothing comes close
