Paul Colman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I lift my voice
To worship You
Oh, my soul rejoice
Take joy, My King
in what You hear
Let me be a sweet, sweet sound
These lyrics represent the writer's deep love and connection to God. The opening line is a declaration of this love, and the lifting of the voice is a way to express this emotion. The writer wants to worship God and make his soul rejoice in this act of devotion. This is similar to Psalm 30:11-12, where the psalmist writes, "You have turned my mourning into dancing; you have taken off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, so that my soul may praise you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever."
The next two lines are directed towards God, asking Him to take joy in what He hears. The writer wants to be a sweet sound to God's ear, similar to the way a parent might take pride and joy in hearing their child sing or play an instrument. The overall message is one of humility and reverence towards God, recognizing His greatness and wanting to honor Him with everything the writer has.
