Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Lord Make Me a Channel of Your Peace" by His Name Is Alive convey a message of surrender and submission to God's will. The singer acknowledges the presence of the Holy Spirit every time they approach God in prayer. They feel a deep longing in their heart, which they believe is their soul's desire for the divine presence. When the singer prays, they request that God make them a "channel of your peace," meaning that they want to be an instrument of God's love, compassion, and healing in the world. They want to be a conduit through which God's grace flows to others. The final line, "He sends down a fire," can be interpreted as a reference to the Holy Spirit's transformative power.


In essence, the song is a prayer for spiritual transformation, asking for the strength and guidance to be selfless and to serve others to the best of one's ability. The theme of service and selflessness is also reflected in the title, which echoes the famous prayer attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi, "Lord, make me an instrument of your peace." The singer is seeking to emulate Saint Francis by being a vessel of God's love in a troubled world.
