You Reign
Guy Penrod Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In the valley of the shadow of death You reign
Through every storm and fiery test You reign
Over the cross and the powers of hell You reign
Inside the loneliest prison cell You reign
You reign (repeat 2x's)
Over the rivers and the oceans deep You reign
You never slumber and You never sleep, You reign
Kings and queens may wear a crown but You reign
And in the end when it all comes down You reign
You reign (repeat 2x's)
Your Kingdom will last forever, You reign (repeat 2x's)
You reign
In the valley of the shadow of death You reign
Through every storm and fiery test You reign
Over the cross and the powers of hell You reign
Inside the loneliest prison cell You reign




Your Kingdom will last forever, You reign (repeat 3x's)
You reign (repeat 2x's)

This repetition emphasizes the central message of the song - that no matter what circumstances we face, God's sovereign rule is all-encompassing and eternal. The final lines of the song, "You reign (repeat 2x's)," serve as a reminder and a call to worship, inviting listeners to join in affirming God's reign over all.
