Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bryan & Katie Torwalt's song Holy Spirit speak of the holiness and divine presence of God's spirit. The opening lines, "There's nothing worth more, that will ever come close, nothing can compare, you're our Living Hope," emphasize the infinite value of the Holy Spirit and how it represents the hope of life to those who believe in it. The song then delves into the personal experience of the singer, where they have 'tasted and seen' the sweetest, most profound kind of love, where their heart is set free, and their shame becomes undone. This emotional and spiritual liberation is a direct manifestation of the Holy Spirit, who has been able to touch the soul of the singer and alleviate their burdens.


The chorus is a resounding call to the Holy Spirit to fully manifest Himself in the room or space that the singer is in. The plea is for the Holy Spirit to come and fill the voids in the atmosphere with His glory and power so that His presence can be felt and experienced by all. The lyrics are also a testament that the most potent desire of the human heart is to be consumed by the Holy Spirit's presence, for in so doing, it is possible to have one's soul set free, and all guilt and shame dissolve away.

We played this while I was in labor and as I gave birth to my son. The Holy Spirit filled that hospital room with a thick presence. He was born into peace. Even the staff said it was the most peaceful birth they have ever been a part of. Thank you Jesus❤
