Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Andrea Helms's song Because Of Who You Are are a declaration of worship and praise directed towards God. The chorus sets the tone of the song by stating that because of who God is, the singer gives Him glory and praise. The repetition of this line reinforces the principle that worship is all about placing our focus on the character and nature of God, rather than on ourselves or our circumstances. The second verse then goes on to describe God using three different names: Jehovah Jireh, my provider; Jehovah Nissi, Lord, You reign in victory; and Jehovah Shalom, my Prince of Peace. These names are significant because they remind us of God's various attributes and roles in our lives. Jehovah Jireh refers to God as the one who provides for all our needs, not just materially but also emotionally and spiritually. Jehovah Nissi represents God as our banner of victory and protection, while Jehovah Shalom reminds us that God is the one who brings us peace and calm amidst chaos.


Overall, the song is a beautiful reminder of who God is and what He has done for us. As we place our focus on Him, we are filled with a sense of awe and reverence, which naturally leads to worship and praise.
