Here I Am to Worship
Anthem Lights Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You

Here I am to worship here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

King of all days oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor

Here I am to worship here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

Well, I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
Well, I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
Well, I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
Well, I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross

Here I am to worship here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me




You're altogether lovely altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

I almost gave up on my God but God sent people to encourage me and lift my soul up and i am very thankful

This reminds me of singing with my mum when I was younger. Junior church on a Sunday morning. Now 24 and about to reach a year without her. She died of cancer last June, and it broke my world. This cover gives me some light and keeps me smiling, even when I don't think I can. Thank you! x
