Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let every kingdom bow
Let every ocean roar
Let every heart adore You now
Praise belongs to You
What can I do but sing
The greatest joy I've found
Before my King
I've come to worship
I've come to lift up Your name
For You deserve this
Life laid down like the one that You gave
I have but one voice
One heart and one sacrifice
So won't you take this
Life laid down and be glorified, be glorified
Praise belongs to You
Let songs and children rise
You silence all Your foes
You set Your glory in the skies
Praise belongs to you creation calling out
For the King to be revealed
Oh King of Heaven come down
King of Heaven come down
'Cause I've come to worship
I've come to lift up Your name
For You deserve this
Life laid down like the one that You gave
I have but one voice
One heart and one sacrifice
So would you take this
Life laid down and be glorified, be glorified
Be glorified, be glorified
I've come to worship
I've come to lift up Your name
For You deserve this
Life laid down like the one that You gave
I have but one voice
One heart and one sacrifice
So would you take this
Life laid down and be glorified, be glorified
Be glorified, be glorified
(Be glorified)
I've come to worship
(Be glorified)
I've come to lift up Your name
(Be glorified)
For You deserve this
Life laid down like the one that You gave
(Be glorified)
I have but one voice
One heart and one sacrifice
(Be glorified)
So would you take this
Life laid down and be glorified

This song came into my head as I was falling asleep the other night. I had to note it. It's 2021 and with everything we are going through - in a global crisis, which seems apocalyptic and prophetic - we need to be playing and singing songs like these even more. Thanks for writing this Jared.

I bought the song on iTunes and I have been meditating on this song for the past few days, listening to it over and over again...it is beautiful...and such truth! Saw that there was a video out there, cool... one thing... I would have preferred less pictures of Jared and more pictures related to the content of the song. Just a thought. Thanks Jared for the song! May God richly bless you, may he make his face shine upon you and give you his peace.
