The Heart Of Worship
Matt Redman's song 'The Heart of Worship' is a reflective worship song about returning to the core of Christian faith: focusing on Jesus rather than external expressions. The lyrics express repentance for making worship about performance and a desire to offer genuine devotion from the heart. The song emphasizes that God desires authenticity over mere songs or rituals. It encourages believers to strip away distractions and come before God with humility, offering their lives as worship. The message aligns with biblical themes of heartfelt surrender and the priority of a personal relationship with God over religious activity.
When the music fades
And all is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart
I'll bring You more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the ways things appear
You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
All about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You Jesus
King of endless worth
No one could express
How much You deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is Yours
Every single breath
I'll bring You more than just a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
All about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You Jesus
Its all about you
Jesus
