Glow
Hillsong Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost and stranded empty handed
Broken down and all alone
Your mercy it entered into darkness
And enfolded us in love

We give You all we are for the glory of Your name
We give all we are for Your praise
Just a glimmer of Your glory
And the Earth falls to it's knees
You level the mountains with a whisper
And You calm the raging seas

We give You all we are for the glory of Your name
We give all we are for Your praise

[Chorus]
Let the Earth come to life
In the light of Heaven's glow
And the streets sound with joy
As the shackles lose their hold
You laid down Your life for one and all
So we give all we are to You alone.

This means freedom for the captive
And good news for those in need
You message is justice and compassion
God of Love and Prince of Peace

We give You all we are for the glory of Your name
We give all we are for Your praise

[Chorus]

With one voice we sing Hallelujah
All the Earth cry out Hallelujah
With the angels sing Hallelujah
Jesus Christ is King





[Chorus]

Line by Line Meaning

Lost and stranded empty handed
Feeling hopeless and helpless, with nothing to hold onto


Broken down and all alone
Feeling shattered and isolated without anyone's help


Your mercy it entered into darkness
Your kindness made its way into our despair and hopelessness


And enfolded us in love
And wrapped us in your affectionate and caring love


We give You all we are for the glory of Your name
We offer ourselves to serve You and magnify Your reputation


We give all we are for Your praise
We surrender everything to honor and worship You


Just a glimmer of Your glory
Even a flicker of Your magnificence


And the Earth falls to it's knees
Makes the whole world surrender and bow down


You level the mountains with a whisper
With just a word, You are capable of flattening and removing obstacles


And You calm the raging seas
And able to subdue even the most violent and turbulent things


Let the Earth come to life
Let the world awaken and start living


In the light of Heaven's glow
Illuminated by the radiance of the divine realm


And the streets sound with joy
And the roads resound with merriment


As the shackles lose their hold
As we break free from the chains that once bound us


You laid down Your life for one and all
You sacrificed Your existence for everyone


So we give all we are to You alone.
So we dedicate everything we have to You only.


This means freedom for the captive
This gives liberty to those who are in bondage


And good news for those in need
And gives hope and glad tidings to those who require it


You message is justice and compassion
Your message is all about fairness and empathy


God of Love and Prince of Peace
You, the embodiment of love and peace


With one voice we sing Hallelujah
Together, as one, we exclaim 'Hallelujah'


All the Earth cry out Hallelujah
Every corner of this world shouts 'Hallelujah'


With the angels sing Hallelujah
Even the celestial beings sing 'Hallelujah'


Jesus Christ is King
Jesus Christ reigns supreme

For those who have sacrificed their lives so that we may be free – We remember you, we honor you, we love you and we humbly thank you for your service. A simple “thank you” is not enough for all that you've endured. ... We pray that the strife, battles and wounds of war be calmed for eternity in God's loving grace. :) XX

Beautiful song! It was part of the soundtrack of my life in the 2010s when I was in college. The musicians who composed and interpreted it are great references for me.
