Planetshakers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one is greater than You
No name is higher
You never fail, always prevail
We put our trust in You
God of the breakthrough
You make a way where there seems to be no way
Unto God be all of the praise
Unto God be all of the praise
For He has done great things
So forever we will sing
To You
To You
Who counts the stars, calls them by name?
The God of all creation
The King of heaven
Behold He comes, God's risen Son
Enthroned in majesty
His glory surrounds Him
Holy is the Lord, we sing holy is the Lord
Unto God be all of the praise
Unto God be all of the praise

The lyrics of Planetshakers’ song “Unto God” is a beautiful and worshipful celebration of the greatness, power, and glory of God. The opening of the song is a declaration of God’s supremacy – from the beginning to the end, from the first to the last, He is the greatest, incomparable, and unmatched. The song continues with an acknowledgment of God’s faithfulness, omnipotence, and sovereignty. It highlights his ability to make a way where there seems to be no way - a reminder that He is the God of the breakthrough. The chorus repeats the phrase “unto God be all the praise” as a statement of submission, adoration, and gratitude to the one who has done great things.
The second verse of “Unto God” acknowledges God as the Almighty, who counts the stars and calls them by name. He is the creator and the king of the universe. It then continues to reflect on the majesty and glory of God displayed in the risen Christ, who is now enthroned in power and splendor. The song ends with a repeated chorus of Holy is the Lord, followed by the repeated resolution to give unto God all the praise for his greatness and faithfulness.
Overall, “Unto God” is a proclamatory and worshipful song that encourages believers to exalt and praise the great and mighty God who has done great things.
