Make Me Yours
Jan L'Ecuyer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make me worthy of Your trust
Come and pour Your fragrance on me
Take me where the veil is torn
Where purity will be restored
Where I'm captured no more by sin
Invite me where only You can go
And I will praise from a deeper place
As I choose to thank You, Lord
And I will stand on Your faithfulness
Show me what it means to be Yours
Make me Yours
From every nation, tribe and tongue
We fix our eyes upon the Son
We fall down before the one Holy God
Teach us what it means to abide
In the place of peace where You reside
Where true worship will rise to the King
Invite us where only You can go
Make us one, take us as Your own
And I will praise from a deeper place
As I choose to thank You, Lord
And I will stand on Your faithfulness
Show me what it means to be Yours
Make me Yours
I will praise, I will praise You, Lord
Invite me where only You can go
Call my name, take me as Your own
And I will praise from a deeper place
As I choose to thank You, Lord
And I will stand on Your faithfulness
Show me what it means to be Yours
And I will praise from a deeper place
As I choose to thank You, Lord
And I will stand on Your faithfulness
Show me what it means to be Yours
Make me Yours
Make me Yours, Jesus, ooh
The song Make Me Yours by Jan L'Ecuyer is a prayer of surrender and a plea for God to transform the singer's heart and make her worthy of trust. The first verse begins with a request for God to whisper in the quietness, suggesting a deep longing for intimacy with Him. The lyrics then continue to implore God to pour His fragrance on the singer, which can be interpreted as a desire to experience the beauty and goodness of God's presence. The second verse speaks of a universal desire to fix our eyes on the Son and fall down before the one Holy God, which emphasizes the unifying power of worship.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Make me Yours" multiple times, driving home the central theme of the song. The idea of being made worthy of God's trust and being restored to purity is a common theme in Christian worship songs. The repetition of the phrase "And I will praise from a deeper place" suggests a transformation in the singer's heart and a renewed desire to worship God with greater depth and sincerity. The final line of the song, "Make me Yours, Jesus," is a direct plea to God to transform the singer's heart and make her one of His own.

Sometimes we have to go deep inside to find that place of worship. Thank you, Lord, you never let go.

Jesus gave me so much strength through His loving assurances I listened to in this blessed and most beautiful music. "You and you alone" is so powerful
