Nothing Else
by Cody Carnes
Theology & Meaning
A heartfelt, stripped-down song of repentance and desire that centers on returning to the 'heart of worship.' The church sings of laying aside agendas and achievements, coming back to Jesus with the simple longing to be in His presence.
Worship Leadership Tips
Effective when used for moments of surrender and re-centering. Works well during prayer times or intimate worship moments. Keep instrumentation minimal.
Arrangement Tips
Let the song breathe with space between phrases. Consider having the congregation sit or kneel to emphasize the posture of seeking God above all else.
