Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Here I stand in awesome reverence,
Falling before the wonder of Your Name.
Humbly now, Lord, I surrender.
This offering to You forever.
Take all I am and use me, Lord, I pray.
Make me what You want me to be
Chorus:
I lay down my life for You.
Throw down my crowns before You.
Give up my all for Your Name.
My Saviour, how I adore You.
Healer, my heart longs for You.
Jesus, You're worthy to be praised.
Bridge:
Jesus, You are Lord forever (x16)
Jesus, You are Lord
Chorus
The lyrics of Planetshakers' song "Worthy To Be Praised" speak of humility, surrender, and reverence before God. The song starts with the declaration of coming into God's presence and standing in awe of His wondrous name. The singer then humbly surrenders themselves to God's will, offering their whole being as a sacrifice for God's use. The chorus continues this theme of surrender, with the singer laying down their life and giving up their all for God's name. The chorus is also an expression of adoration and longing for Jesus as a Savior and a Healer. The bridge reinforces Jesus' Lordship over all and repeats it to emphasize His eternal reign.
The song is a call to surrender oneself to God and to let Him take control of one's life. It is a reminder that everything we have and do should revolve around God and His will for our lives. The lyrics also speak of the worthiness of Jesus to be praised, reminding us that He is our Savior and Healer, and that His lordship is everlasting.
