Casting Crowns - What If I Gave Everything Lyrics






All my life I longed to be a hero
My sword raised high, running to the battle
I was going to take giants down
Be a man you would write about
Deep in my chest is the heart of a warrior

So why am I still standing here
Why am I still holding back from You
I hear You call me out into deeper waters
But I settle on the shallow end
So why am I still standing here

So afraid what it might cost to follow You
I'd walk by faith if I could get these feet to move
But I don't want to live that way
I don't want to look back someday
On a life that never stepped across the line

So why am I still standing here
Why am I still holding back from You
You've given me a faith that can move a mountain
But I'm still playing in the sand
Building little kingdoms that'll never stand
I hear You call me out into deeper waters
But I settle on the shallow end

I'm so tired of standing here
What if I gave everything to You

What if I gave everything
What if I stopped holding back from You
Starting now I'm stepping out onto deeper waters
What if I gave everything
What if I stopped holding back from You
Starting now I'm stepping out onto deeper waters
I want to see some mountains move

Ready to give everything
Say goodbye to standing here

Casting Crowns What If I Gave Everything Comments
  1. B.... L....

    If I found some one who was a great person that would be great and I would really just be with him. I see who's there for me and I'm just finally honestly getting my mind set back. I know the fight will never stop but I believe the harrasing times will end. I'm hoping today will be the begining. To a new stone to walk. I haven't been able to let it go and it seems where back there again but I'm back I'm ready and I need out of this toxic life all together I need to get a place and move forward with a job.

  2. N.... M....

    For me, my pregnancy has given me the strength and courage to head for deeper waters. My faith wells in my heart and soul every time I feel my daughter move. I will do anything for her, make every mountain move, and surrender my soul to the Lord without restraint.

  3. J.... C....

    Praise God!!! I'm so tired of standing here...Stop holding back...I'm stepping into deeper water. .I'm giving all to You...

  4. C.... H....

    we are to always Praise the God of heaven and us, with everything that we do during the day.

  5. w.... r....

    Porque Abraão tinha uma serva? Pq alg seria servo de outros homens se somos iguais perante a Deus? E se a serva de Abraão não quisesse dar um filho a ele, ainda sim ela teria que ter relação sexual por que Deus quis assim, Assim?

  6. E.... M....

    24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money
    19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

    22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy,[l] your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eyes are unhealthy,[m] your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

  9. G.... G....

    He knows everything that I like. I could get anything out of him but I choose to not abuse him. I would like you to walk into deeper waters, yes, because I can't give myself completely speaking into the air like this and seeing images of other people. I feel like I am talking into the clouds. I hope you can understand?

  22. g.... h....

    Why I stay where I am too and Only GOD move my own mountain, is it I live by faith or by my own understanding. We have our own choices to choose what is good and right to care, love and protect souls. I might don't know what you really want to do but I will always protect, care and love you and your precious families souls no matter how you will shattering me but will stand until OUR HEAVENLY FATHER'S WILL ONLY. That's why GOD'S WORDS says; if you are weak just repent fasting and release your own soul and married and learn and if OBEY HIM, HE might move your own mountain back to you today. Please forgives me!!!!!!! Don't bring the past thought of left me alone by myself and carry my own children and grandchildren and your too. That's Ok!!! If I do it myself in the past I can today. I just started all over again to find what is missing with my step. Please forgives me and my family's. I loves my HEAVENLY FATHER'S and don't want to not obey HIM today. Don't scare about my temporary body and flesh only my soul so that can protect our precious lost families. Thank you very much.

  52. L.... D....

    Adoro ouvi voces, excelente banda!

  53. J.... H....

    GOD IS AT MY LEFT SIDE WITH HIS HEAD RESTING DOWN ON MY HEART BECAUSE MY HEART IS MOST VITAL HE RESTS HIS HEAD UPON MY HEART I REST MY HEAD UPON HIS HEART PEOPLE WILL SAY GOD IS ON MY RIGHT SIDE WHEN THEY KNOW GOD IS ON MY MY LEFT SIDE. MAY GOD WASH OUR BODY FROM HEAD TO TOE THROUGH TO THE SOUL WITH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST WHILE WE STAND FOOT AT THE CROSS

  54. A.... P....

    Wow. Sometimes we are scared of walking to him because we think that he's going to push us away but that's not going to happen 🙌🙏😭 that's why he's there so we can lean on him

  55. V.... G....

    Why am I holding holding back? Why am I so afraid? I don’t want to look back, and see I never crossed the line. So why am I still standing here? God, I know you want me to move. Deep down I want to, you see that. I know, my fears have chains on them. Why is Taking them off so hard to do? I know you are here with me. So why, why do I keep standing in the shallow waters? Why am I struggling so hard to do what my heart and gut are telling me to do, by still listening to what my head is trying to convince me of. I don’t know how to keep the waves of depression from crashing on me. I feel like I’ll make things worse for myself, and not know how to handle it. I know you gave me the strength to get this far, and I thank you for that. God What am I missing here? Other than total faith?😅. Please show me the path I need to travel, to get me to the open waters. I’m so tired of where I am. 😞

  56. A.... F....

    I will not hold back lord, i will do anything for you lord I love you

  57. R.... D....

    Yes Lord

  58. V.... e....

    My Jesus is very good!...

    I'm an authoress so when he sang "be a man you would write about" well....yeah...😉

  61. D.... W....

    Walk by faith not by sight hard to do but not impossible with God

  62. M.... M....

    Wheather people choose to admit it or not this song really does make alot of sense

  63. D.... W....

    I grew up with Christian music playing on the radio everyday, yet never knew him. 3 years ago, I found him. So why am I still standing here? I'm still holding back from him, settling for the shallow end. I feel like he might be calling me to be a missionary--not for vacation trips but as a career. Please pray for me!

  64. B.... i....

    I tried , now lets see where it goes, Love you brother.

  65. S.... B....

  80. B.... B....

    So many people are afraid to turn to God because they might have to become uncomfortable and change their life, their friends, their habits, their thinking, their attitude, their priorities and that idea disrupts their sense of all they have ever known.

    To those people yes, it's not easy and you will have to die to self eventually. But Jesus never said that it would be easy, he said it would be worth it and that he will walk with us thru it all.

    And yes, you will face many trials, but life is going to give those to you anyway. So why not extend a hand to Jesus before another trial comes? We will always face trials until we are called home. That's a fact. But they serve a good purpose and that's to strengthen us spiritually, draw us closer to God and give us perseverance so we will be better equipped when hardships come our way again.

    I pray that you'll give Jesus your heart and your hand. God bless.

    great video - I am going to play it at Celebrate Recovery this week. We always start with a few worship songs, and it is my job to bring them in. The lesson this week is about turning your will over to GOD - step 3 of the 12 steps. I think it will help people realize following JESUS is there best choice. I heard it said like this - Are you in a committed relationship with JESUS or are you just dating? I'm all in.

  82. F.... a....

The time is at hand. servant

  88. J.... F....

    I've struggled and fallen down more times then I can count, but Thank You for Your mercy, and Your love You show me every moment I ever need to know. I'm not playing it safe, nor small, nor am I luke warm, I'm a believer, 100% in all of You, myself, thy neighbor and what I believe You have prepared ahead of me as You continue to lead and call me closer. Today is the day all is well, I'll transform and put the ball in another's court as to whether or not they see what all greatness You have built in me.
    I will defeat the enemy, I will ignore the naysayers, I will pay zero attention to the million reasons I have that could righteously hold me back, and pay attention to the only one answer I need, that is You Lord, a miracle, eventhough if to earn it on my own, I have only done my fair share, I will work harder, I will move with lighting fast intuition and insight, as I am gifted with a rare and very uncommon ability to see things now three years before the manifestation. I also see beauty in having some patience. Eventhough an optimist, occasionally a tiny bit of pessimistic caution yields good favor. I am lead more by faith then logic or reason, although both also play a substantial role leading me to become who I am suppose to be!

    Gene Townsend you have learned things that are not the teachings of a holy God, but good news Jesus seems to have been holding you up the whole time! I was a Catholic growing up and saved at 21! You need to realize you are imperfect at times yes but He sees his blood covering you if you confess and believe in Him! He is working in you just read the scriptures and pray over them talk to Him constantly and HE will guide you! No worries! The enemy has already been defeated just hunger for truth and it's a promise to receive! God bless
