Matt Maher's song "Everything and Nothing" reflects on the journey of faith, returning to the innocence of Eden and the redemption found in Christ. The lyrics express the paradox of being lost yet found, saved yet aware of sin, and ultimately finding identity in God's love alone. Maher uses imagery of pilgrims and wanderers seeking truth, acknowledging human pride and the need for grace. The song emphasizes trusting in God even without visible proof, and the desire to be led home on the straight and narrow path. It's a contemplative piece about surrender, faith, and the sufficiency of God's love.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Come let us return to where we were
Back to knowing life and saving words
Back to where we heard redemption speak
Where You brought us to our knees
Come let us return to Eden's heart
Long before the fall, back to the start
Back before we covered up our sin
And took a second skin
Once upon a time
I'm lost and found
I'm saved and drowned
I'm everything and nothing all at once
I'm so far gone
But I'm already home
With everything and nothing but Your love
Come let us discover something new
Cause we're all pilgrims on a journey to the truth
We're all wanderers relying on a man
To help us understand
Cause everybody wants to see the proof
We're always tripping on our pride to get to You
So blessed are the ones who haven't seen
But still believe
Once upon a time
I'm lost and found
I'm saved and drowned
I'm everything and nothing all at once
I'm so far gone
But I'm already home
With everything and nothing but Your love
My heart is tin but love is real
I'm unconvinced by what I feel
No yellow bricks to pave this road
Oh, straight and narrow lead me home
Lead me home
I'm lost and found
I'm saved and drowned
I'm everything and nothing all at once
Oh, I'm so far gone
But I'm already home
With everything and nothing but Your love
Everything and nothing
Everything and nothing
Everything and nothing but Your love
Nothing but Your love
Nothing but Your love
