Costly – Maverick City Music Lyrics

Here is my alabaster
Poured out in worship
Here is my full surrender
I know it’s worth it
Some say it’s too expensive
I say it’s not enough
How could I give too much?

Yes

Let it be costly
Let it be costly
You are most worthy
Most worthy

Holding back nothing
Let it mean something
You are most worthy
Most worthy, Jesus

Jesus
Oh, Jesus

I’ve counted all my reasons
They just keep adding up
I can’t afford to hold back
The sum of all my love
Some say it’s too expensive
I say it’s not enough
How could I give too much?
How could I give too much?

Let it be costly
Let it be costly
You are most worthy
Most worthy

Holding back nothing
Let it mean something
You are most worthy
Most worthy

Let it be costly
Let it be costly
You are most worthy
Most worthy

Holding back nothing
Let it mean something
You are most worthy
Most worthy, Jesus

Jesus
Only Jesus is worthy

I give it all to Jesus
I give it all to Jesus
He’s worthy of it all
He’s worthy

For all I bring
It can’t compare
To all you’ve given me
I will not bring what costs me nothing

I’ve counted the cost
And I’m convinced
You’re still worth everything
I will not bring what costs me nothing

If you made up in your mind, say

For all I bring
It can’t compare
To all you’ve given me
I will not bring what costs me nothing

Counted the cost
And I’m convinced
You’re still worth everything
I will not bring what costs me nothing

One more time, y’all

For all I bring
It can’t compare
To all you’ve given me
I will not bring what costs me nothing

If it doesn’t cost me

Counted the cost
And I’m convinced
You’re still worth everything
I will not bring what costs me nothing

And let it be

Let it be costly
Let it be costly
‘Cause You are most worthy
Most worthy

Holding back nothing
Let it mean something
You are most worthy
Most worthy

You are most worthy
Yes, You are
Yes, You are

I give You my heart, my mind and my soul, Jesus
You’re worthy
It’s the least I can do
The least I can do

You mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus
That’s why I lay You down

You mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus
‘Cause you mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus

You mean everything to me, Jesus
You mean everything to me, Jesus

I’ve counted the cost
And I’m convinced
You’re still worth everything

You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
Oh, Jesus
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth all of me
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
Yes. You are
You’re still worth everything
And I’m convinced
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
You’re still worth everything
Even after all these years
You’re still worth everything
Even after all these years
I’ve lost some things along the way
You’re still worth everything
Whatever You are
Whatever You are
Whatever You are
You’re still worth everything
Whatever You are
Whatever You are
You’re still worth everything
