Lyrics

All my (Bbm)world,

my all I’ve (Gb)lost,

the wrecks I’ve made here,

the lives it cost,

Your hand (Ab)re stores,

Your words make whole.

With all my soul

I thank You, I owe You to all my de (Ab)vo

tion,

all that I have

to give.

Here’s my de (Ab)vo

tion.

You’re all that it means

to live.

All my (Bbm)past,

my taint ed (Gb)name,

You stole its leg cy

of pride and shame.

You’re all (Ab)I love,

You’re all I fear.

I’m draw ing near,

to face You, to know You, to show You de (Ab)vo

tion,

all that I have

to give.

Here’s my de (Ab)vo

tion.

You’re all that it means

to live.

All my

You (Gb)found me in a shal low grave, You (Bbm)dragged me out from be neath it all.

You (Gb)healed me,

saved me in the (Db)nick of time,

Your per fect time.

You (Gb)found me in a shal low grave, You (Bbm)called me out from be neath it all.

You (Gb)touched me,

saved me in the (Db)nick of time,

Your per fect time.

You per fect time.

I de vote all I have to You.

I de vote all that You made new,

all You re (Db)stored that day You bled,

all that You brought back from the dead.

Oh, de (Ab)vo

tion,

all that I have

to give.

Here’s my de (Ab)vo

tion.

You’re all that it means

to live.

You’re all it means to live.

My Lord, my de (Ab)vo

tion.

Devotion by Newsboys — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “Devotion” by Newsboys in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of Db at 120 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
