History Maker
Delirious Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is it true today that when people pray
Cloudless skies will break
Kings and queens will shake
Yes it's true and I believe it
I'm living for you

Is it true today that when people pray
We'll see dead men rise
And the blind set free
Yes it's true and I believe it
I'm living for you

I'm gonna be a history maker in this land
I'm gonna be a speaker of truth to all mankind
I'm gonna stand, I'm gonna run
Into your arms, into your arms again
Into your arms, into your arms again

Well it's true today that when people stand
With the fire of God, and the truth in hand
We'll see miracles, we'll see angels sing
We'll see broken hearts making history




Yes it's true and I believe it
We're living for you

Majestade

Ohhhh, só existe um Deus verdadeiro
Aqui estou eu, humilhado por Vossa Majestade
Coberto por sua graça tão livre
Aqui estou eu, sabendo que sou um homem pecador
Coberto pelo sangue do Cordeiro
E agora eu descobri que o maior amor de todos é o meu
Desde que entregou sua vida, o maior sacrifício

Cantando
Majestade, majestade
Sua graça me encontrou assim como eu sou
De mãos vazias, mas vivo em Suas mãos
Então aqui estou, humilhado pelo amor que Você dá
Perdoado para que eu possa perdoar
Aqui estou eu, sabendo que sou o Seu desejo
Santificado pela glória e fogo
E agora eu descobri que o maior amor de todos é o meu
Desde que entregou sua vida, o maior sacrifício

Majestade
Estamos cantando Majestade, Majestade
Sua graça me encontrou assim como eu sou
De mãos vazias, mas vivo em suas mãos
Estamos cantando Majestade, Majestade
Para sempre sou mudado pelo seu amor
Na presença de Vossa Majestade

Majestade
Estamos cantando Majestade, Majestade
Sua graça me encontrou assim como eu sou
De mãos vazias, mas vivo em Suas mãos.
Estamos cantando Majestade, Majestade
Para sempre sou mudado pelo seu amor
Na presença de Vossa Majestade

I live in the Chicago area during the Covid-19 pandemic "stay-in-place" order in Illinois. I've been in my home for seven weeks. t's May 8, 2020, I woke up from a dream at 4:15 a.m. in which the Lord gave me a prayer assignment. As I was pondering the dream, the Lord reminded me of the song, "History Maker." I immediately asked "Alexa" to play it for me. I went online to get the lyrics. I believe the Church will arise to be the history makers in our lands during this time of worldwide panic and fear. Thank you for your ministry.

Just make sure you're the good kind of history makers. Not the "Most death from super-spreader events" kind. How about more the "actually fed the poor, voted in their interests and gave to the sick to help cover medical costs" kind?

@philthompson7529

We are all history makers... and worshippers... let's pray that God brings revival... and that Zechariah 10:1 happens now!

@helenahsmith777

Let’s all be history makers in 2021!!!

@patrickday4206
