Because of You
Christ for the Nations Institute Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Never before have I felt so alive
Never before have I thought I could fly
Never before have I ever been so free
Coz being with you I now begin to see

That Your presence overwhelms me

Because of you I can dance
Because of you I lift my hands
Because of you I can sing, I am free





We jump, and shout and da

Overall Meaning

nce around the room, but why? The songwriter of Christ for the Nations Institute's song "Because of You" would argue that it's because of the Lord's presence in our lives. The opening lines of the song express the way that the singer has been positively impacted by having a relationship with God: feeling alive, as though they could fly, and freer than ever before. They attribute these feelings directly to spending time with God – "being with you."


As the song goes on, it becomes more exuberant in its celebration of the Lord's influence. Because of Him, the singer can dance, lift their hands in worship, and sing joyously. The chorus specifically calls out the newfound freedom that they've discovered through their faith. It's clear that the songwriter sees the presence of God as the biggest source of joy in their life, and they want to share that joy with others.


Overall, "Because of You" is a song of gratitude and celebration. It's a reminder that even when life gets tough, there is always something to be grateful for – in this case, the love and guidance of a higher power. The upbeat melody and lyrics make it a perfect anthem for worship and celebration.

May God bless you guys. I listened to your songs when I was pregnant of my 2nd baby, in 2007. I was so blessed. That year God told me to stop dancing secular music. And I danced on with you guys
