Cody Carnes released “Nothing Else,” a powerful new single. The single was performed live at Passion 2019, where almost 40,000 young adults worldwide filled the arenas in Atlanta and Dallas.
Cody Carnes explains that the song is about getting back to the things that matter. It was born out of a realization last year that my heart was putting God’s hand before His heart. I was too focused on what He was giving me and was disappointed when things didn’t work out the way I wanted. This is not how I want my heart to be toward God. This song was born the week after I had that revelation. It has already been a gift that has refueled and refreshed my heart
Carnes is a respected worship leader and songwriter. His debut album, The Darker The Night/The Brighter The Morning, was released in 2017. His wife Kari Jobe has co-written several songs, including “Let the Heavens Open” off Majestic’s Dove Award-winning album. He also wrote eight tracks for The Garden, which was nominated for a GMA Dove Award. The couple also released “Cover The Earth,” a well-received single. Elevation Worship will join him on “Hallelujah Here Below.” This wonderful song will instantly bring you to worship.
Lyrics to Nothing Else by Cody Carnes
I’m caught up in Your presence
I just want to sit here at Your feet
I’m caught up in this holy moment
I never want to leave
Oh, I’m not here for blessings
Jesus, You don’t owe me anything
More than anything that You can do
I just want You
I’m sorry when I’ve just gone through the motions
I’m sorry when I just sang another song
Take me back to where we started
I open up my heart to You
I’m sorry when I’ve come with my agenda
I’m sorry when I forgot that You’re enough
Take me back to where we started
I open up my heart to You
I’m caught up in Your presence
I just want to sit here at Your feet
I’m caught up in this holy moment
I never want to leave
Oh, I’m not here for blessings
Jesus, You don’t owe me anything
And more than anything that You can do
I just want You
I just want You
Nothing else(2x)
Nothing else will do
I just want You
Nothing else(2x)
Nothing else will do
I just want You
Nothing else(2x)
Nothing else will do
I just want You
Nothing else(2x), Jesus
Nothing else will do
I just want You
Nothing else(2x)
Nothing else will do
I just want You
Nothing else(2x), Jesus
Nothing else will do
I’m coming back to where we started
I’m coming back to where we started
When I first felt Your love
You’re all that matters, Jesus
You’re all that matters
I’m coming back to what really matters
Just Your heart
I just want to bless Your heart, Jesus
I’m caught up in Your presence
I just want to sit here at Your feet
I’m caught up in this holy moment
I never want to leave
And oh, I’m not here for blessings
Jesus, You don’t owe me anything
More than anything that You can do
Oh, I just want You
