Heritvge Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every tribe, every tongue
Every daughter, and every son
Will one day bow their knee before Your name
Every voice, every heart
Hear the sound of His renown
There's no other name y which we are saved

We lift You high, we lift You high
Jesus our King be glorified

Every mountain and valley low
All the glory is Yours alone
Seated high above the earth upon Your throne
Now we bow down, cast our crowns
Fix our eyes upon You now
You're the one we've come to worship and adore

We lift You high, we lift You high
Jesus our King be glorified
We lift You high, we lift You high
Jesus our King be glorified

Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord Almighty
Earth and heaven cry out
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord Almighty
Earth and heaven cry out
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord Almighty
Earth and heaven cry out
To the King above all kings!

We lift You high, we lift You high
Jesus our King be glorified




We lift You high, we lift You high
Jesus our King be glorified

Overall Meaning

The song "King" by Heritage is a worship anthem that proclaims the majesty and holiness of God. The lyrics begin with the acknowledgment that every tribe, tongue, daughter, and son will kneel before God's name one day. The song emphasizes the power of God's name and how there is no other name by which we are saved. The chorus is a declaration of praise to Jesus, who is referred to as our King, and a call for His glory to be lifted high.


The second verse continues the theme of reverence and worship, acknowledging that all the glory belongs to God alone. The imagery of mountains and valleys emphasizes the vastness and transcendence of God, who is seated high above the earth on His throne. The bridge of the song is a repetition of the word "holy" three times, emphasizing the holiness and glory of the Lord Almighty, and how both earth and heaven cry out in reverence for Him.


Overall, the song "King" is a powerful proclamation of worship and confession of faith that is focused on the wonder of God's name and His sovereignty over heaven and earth. It is a call for believers to lift His name high and glorify Him.

Toda tribo, toda língua
Toda filha e todo filho
Um dia dobrarão seus joelhos diante do Teu nome
Toda voz, todo coração
Ouça o som de Seu renome
Não há outro nome pelo qual sejamos salvos

{ Refrão}
Nós te exaltamos, nós te exaltamos
Jesus, nosso Rei, seja glorificado

{Versículo 2}
Cada montanha e vale baixo
Toda a glória é somente sua
Sentado bem acima da terra em Seu trono
Agora nos curvamos, lançamos nossas coroas
Fixamos nossos olhos sobre você agora
Você é aquele que viemos adorar e adorar

{Refrão}
Nós te elevamos alto, nós te elevamos alto
Jesus nosso Rei seja glorificado
Nós te elevamos alto, nós te elevamos alto
Jesus nosso Rei seja glorificado

{Ponte}
Santo, santo, santo
É o Senhor Todo-Poderoso
Terra e céu clama
Santo, santo, santo

Terra e céu clama
Santo, santo, santo
É o Senhor Todo-Poderoso

Ao Rei acima de todos os reis!

{Refrão}

The song is amazing! We would love to sing it in church. Is there a possibility to receive the sheets for this song?

@jenniferhoban8863

I would love to have the chance to use this in a video blog of piloting a tandem this spring with a friend who has been blind for 50 years across Italy. God has used this guy mightily in prison ministry for the better part of 40 years now. I don't want to violate copyright.
