Praise Is the Offering
Gateway Worship Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come and let us sing for joy
Let us praise and shout aloud
To the lifter of our heads
To the Rock we're standing on

(PRE-CHORUS)
Your salvation is our song
Now we can't stay silent
We will sing how

(CHORUS)
Great is Your love for us
Great are the things You've done
Praise is the offering we bring to You
All of our heart and soul
All that You are and more
Praise is the offering we bring to You

Lord, we come to worship You
Lord, we bow our hearts in awe
By Your love, we are redeemed
We are Yours and You're our God




(We are Yours and You're our God)
(We are Yours and You're our God)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Gateway Worship's song "Praise Is The Offering" call for believers to come together and lift their voices in joyful praise to God. The song encourages the worshipper to shout and sing with abandon, recognizing that God is the one who lifts their heads and provides a firm foundation in the midst of life's storms. The pre-chorus declares that the salvation offered by God is the reason for their song, and that they cannot help but sing out in response to the great love and mercy shown to them.


The chorus is a declaration of praise, reminding the listener of the many great things God has done and the all-encompassing nature of His love. The offering they bring before God is their whole selves, heart and soul, acknowledging that God deserves nothing less than everything they are and have to offer. The final verse is a continuation of this worship, as the singer declares their devotion and love for God in response to His redeeming work in their life.
