Consumed
Jeremy Camp's song 'Consumed' is a worship ballad about surrendering fully to God. The lyrics describe an internal battle for the heart and mind, acknowledging human weakness and dependence on God's strength. The singer falls to his knees, emptying himself and asking God to consume every part of his life, leaving no room for worldly distractions. The song emphasizes God's active, tearing-down love that removes fears and worries. It's a prayer for complete devotion, with the repeated desire to be consumed only by God.
There is a war that's inside
A battle for my heart and mind
Some days I feel I just can't fight
I'm not strong enough on my own
Thank God I'm not standing alone
You're with me wherever I go
So I fall to my knees
Empty all of me
I don't, I don't wanna be consumed by
Anything else in this world but You Lord
Only You Lord
So take all I have
My heart in surrender
Be all that overwhelms me forever
Forever
I wanna be consumed only by You
Only by You
Consumed only by You
Your scars have shown me that You can
Invade everything that I am
Till there's nothing left in my hands
Your love isn't passive at all
It violently tears down my walls
And one by one my worries fall
I don't, I don't wanna be consumed by
Anything else in this world but You Lord
Only You Lord
So take all I have
My heart in surrender
Be all that overwhelms me forever
Forever
I wanna be consumed only by You
Only by You
Consumed only by You
So I fall to my knees
Empty all of me
I fall to my knees
Empty all of me
I don't, I don't wanna be consumed by
Anything else in this world but You Lord
Only You Lord
So take all I have
My heart in surrender
Be all that overwhelms me forever
Forever
I wanna be consumed only by You
Only by You
Consumed only by You
Only by You
Consumed only by You
Only by You
Consumed only by You
