[Aaron Moses:]
I found it all in Your presence
Now I can stop all the searchin'
I looked in all the wrong places
Eight billion others
So glad I found You
I found You
So glad I found You (You)
The world can't match what I'm feelin'
Glad I found You, I found You
So glad I found You, mm
I was a ship without a sail, I could've lost my mind
In the middle of the storm, You pulled me like a tide (Pulled me like)
And when I thought that it was over, You redeemed the time
This is paradise
Now I've got You
Oh, now I've got You (I've got, I've got, I've got)
And the world can't match what I'm feelin'
Now I've got You (I've got), You (You)
Now I've got You (I've got You), ooh (Now I've got)

The song "I Found You" by Maverick City Music is a powerful and heartfelt worship anthem that speaks of finding everything we need in the presence of God. It captures the joy and gratitude of discovering the love and grace of God in a world that often leaves us searching for fulfillment.
The lyrics of the song express the deep sense of relief and satisfaction that comes from finding God. It acknowledges that there are many things in the world that we may pursue in an attempt to find meaning and purpose, but ultimately, true fulfillment can only be found in God's presence. The song celebrates the discovery of this truth and the freedom it brings.
The theme of finding God and experiencing His presence is a central theme in Scripture. In Psalm 16:11, it says, "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence, there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." This verse beautifully captures the essence of "I Found You" as it speaks of the joy and satisfaction that comes from being in God's presence.
Another verse that relates to the theme of the song is Jeremiah 29:13, which says, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." This verse reminds us that when we earnestly seek God, He will reveal Himself to us. It echoes the sentiment expressed in the song that true fulfillment and satisfaction can only be found in God.
The song also touches on the idea of being lost and then found. It acknowledges that before we find God, we may feel like ships without a sail, lost in the storms of life. But when we encounter God and experience His presence, He rescues us and provides us with a sense of purpose and direction. This concept aligns with the parable of the lost sheep in Luke 15:4-7, where Jesus tells of a shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine sheep to find the one that is lost. When the lost sheep is found, there is great rejoicing. "I Found You" captures this same joy and celebration that comes from being found by God.
The song's message of finding fulfillment in God's presence is a powerful reminder for believers. It encourages us to prioritize our relationship with God above all else and to seek Him with all our heart. It reminds us that no matter what we may be searching for in the world, true satisfaction and joy can only be found in God.
