Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love
My heart is bursting Lord
To tell of all You've done
Of how You've changed my life
I want to shout it out
From every rooftop sing
For now, I know that God
Is for me not against me
I could sing unending songs
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love
Oh I could sing unending songs
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love
My heart is bursting Lord
To tell of all You've done
Of how You've changed my life
And wiped away the past
I want to shout it out
From every rooftop sing
For now, I know that God
Is for me not against me
I could sing unending songs
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love
Everybody's singing now 'cause we're so happy
Everybody's dancing now 'cause we're so happy
If only we could see Your face
And see You smiling over us
And unseen angels celebrate
For joy is in this place!
Oh I could sing unending songs

Well I could dance a thousand miles
Because of your great love
Oh I could sing unending songs
Of how you saved my soul
Well I could dance a thousand miles

When the music fades
All is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart
I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you,
It's all about you, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it
When it's all about you,
It's all about you, Jesus
King of endless worth
No one could express
How much you deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is yours
Every single breath
I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're lookingโฆ

When I was growing up, we played this song in the youth group band at my church. The adult leader of the youth band was an awesome guy and I loved playing this song with him, even as an adult. He just passed away this week, and I will always think of him when I hear this song. Rest in peace, Ken โค๏ธ

This testimony blesses me this morning thank you for sharing. I was a youth pastor at one time and a dear youth member said that heโll never forget that time of our lives. You reminded me of Enrique. One day weโll all be up there in Gods physical presence with Ken singing praises along with all Godโs angels!
