Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Put your hands in the air!
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh

On my knees, making a plea
Lord, I'm ready! Use me!
The people in the world need a way
I'll tell them what You want me to say
And I'll keep my hands in the air!
Jesus, Your Name is power!
You're the outlet I plug into!
I just want to be used
I want to be electricity just for Your city
Yeah!

I feel His energy charging me like a battery
Every time my hands go up, up, up, up
Every time my hands go up
I feel His energy using me like a battery
Every time my hands go up, up, up, up
Every time my hands go up

Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh

Where are them hands at?
Keep 'em up high, where them hands at?
If you know Jesus stood in
Your place giving you grace
Then don't take it for granted, no
See, I cannot be purged (Purged)
When I'm feeling the surge (Surge)
And I'm getting the urge (Urge)
To go give 'em the Word
Yes, I gotta rejoice 'Cause with my voice
I was screaming at chicks
Rapping 'bout money and tryna get rich
Looking at Heaven and shaking my fist
(But uh) i want the Lord to use me
Like I'm a tool, like I'm Moses' rod
Screaming give me Jesus! Give me Jesus!
Give me Jesus! Give me God!
Jesus, Your Name is power!
You're the outlet I plug into!
I just want to be used
I want to be electricity just for Your city
Yeah!

I feel His energy charging me like a battery
Every time my hands go up, up, up, up
Every time my hands go up
I feel His energy using me like a battery
Every time my hands go up, up, up, up
Every time my hands go up

Can you feel the power when you say the Name?
Like turning a light on
And all the darkness fades
But we don't deserve it, it's only by grace
It's only through faith that He uses me!
Yeah!

Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh

I feel His energy charging me like a battery
Every time my hands go up, up, up, up
Every time my hands go up




I feel His energy using me like a battery
Every time my hands go up!
