than anything my heart could wish for
I just want you
And Jesus, my beloved Saviour
Everything I am I owe to You
I owe it all to You
And angels come and adore You
And we Your children worship You
Chorus:
You are my world
You are my God
And I lay down my life for You
You are my Lord
The One I love
No one could ever take Your place
And everything I have
I give to You, my Lord, the One I live for
I live for You
And all my days are gifts from You
I pray I'd use them as You want me to
Use them for you
Repeat chorus
You Are My World - Hillsong United
Released in 2001 on the self-titled album You Are My World, this track by Hillsong United stands as a defining anthem of modern worship music. The song blends contemporary production with traditional hymnody, creating a sound that bridges the gap between classic praise and modern church music. As a staple of the band's early discography, it exemplifies the genre's shift toward emotive, acoustic-driven arrangements that prioritize spiritual reflection over high-energy performance. The recording has since become a foundational piece in the catalog of contemporary Christian music, frequently featured in services and media globally. Its enduring popularity reflects the group's ability to craft recordings that resonate deeply with congregations seeking both familiarity and fresh expression in their worship experience.
