Glow
Hillsong Kids Worship Team Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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]

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
