These are the songs of a distinctly relational and prolific songwriter. “My father is a pastor, so my whole family has been shaped by the church,” says Kerrie. “From a young age, my parents always taught me to reach out to the broken and to those who need hope.” With her first performance at the age of 5, Kerrie grew up singing in church, playing piano and leading worship. She wrote her first songs in high school. The 10 songs on Kerrie Roberts reflect the redemptive seeds planted during those years and into her young adulthood.
Thematically, the album explores a thoughtful side of faith, hope and love—the acknowledgment that an authentic life of faith isn’t void of suffering, the purpose amidst pain, the promise that a breakthrough is coming, and the motivating power of God’s love. Says Kerrie, “I want every song to leave people with a sense of purpose—a call to action, a realization of a truth, a promotion of hope and healing.”

Savior To Me
Kerrie Roberts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You wrote the secrets of the world
And filled the ancient skies
With Your voice and light
Before the world began to spin
You knew the heart of broken men
And how to save our lives
What words could tell, what song could sing?
And bring glory to God above
Full of truth and endless love
He who is and was and always will be
I surrender to the one
Gentle and most powerful
Of all the things You are
You've chosen to be a Savior to me
You have made Your light to shine
Through the darkness of all time
And that light was life
In the face of Jesus Christ
You've caused a dawn within my soul
My heart no longer is my own
I wanna praise You now
With every breath that You allow
And what words could tell, what song could sing?
And bring glory to God above
Full of truth and endless love
He who is and was and always will be
I surrender to the one
Gentle and most powerful
Of all the things You are
You've chosen to be a Savior to me
And I sing glory to God Almighty
And I sing glory to God Almighty
And I sing glory to God Almighty
Glory to the God above
Full of truth and endless love
He who is and was
And always will be
And I surrender to the one
Gentle and most powerful
Of all the things You are
You've chosen to be a Savior to me
And I sing glory to God Almighty
And I sing glory, and I sing glory
And I sing glory, I sing glory
I sing glory, I sing glory
The song "Savior to Me" by Kerrie Roberts is a beautiful testimony of faith and surrender to God's love and grace. The lyrics speak of how God, before the creation of the world, knew the hearts of broken men and offered salvation through His perfect sacrifice. The song acknowledges that words and songs cannot fully capture God's glory and infinite love, but still the singer surrenders to Him and praises His name.
The first stanza of the song talks about God's creative power and how He filled the ancient skies with His voice and light. The second stanza references the biblical concept of salvation through Jesus Christ and how God's light shines through even the darkest times. The chorus declares the singer's surrender to God as her Savior and gives glory to Him. The bridge repeats the phrase "glory to God Almighty" as a declaration of praise and affirmation of God's goodness.

Hi Kerrie! Your voice has only gotten better over the years. I went to high school with Kerrie, and she sang for us in chapel almost every week.
