Awesome God
Praise and Worship Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain't just putting on the ritz
(Our God is an awesome God)

There's thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
(Our God is an awesome God)
And the Lord wasn't joking
When He kicked 'em out of Eden
It wasn't for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
And so you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

And when the sky was starless
In the void of the night
(Our God is an awesome God)

He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
(Our God is an awesome God)

Judgment and wrath He poured out on the Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that you have not
Too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God (Our God is an awesome God)
He reigns from heaven above (He reigns from heaven above)
With wisdom, power, and love (With wisdom, power, and love)
Our God is an awesome God





Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God

Overall Meaning

The song "Awesome God" by Praise and Worship is a powerful declaration of faith that acknowledges the greatness of God. The first two stanzas highlight God's immense power, as he is depicted rolling up his sleeves, with thunder in his footsteps and lightning in his fists. It is made clear that God is not to be taken lightly. The song also reminds listeners of the consequences of disobedience, as demonstrated when God kicked Adam and Eve out of Eden. However, the chorus brings a reassuring message that even in the face of God's greatness, he is a loving God who reigns over heaven with wisdom, power, and love.


The third stanza reaffirms God's power to create. The lyrics describe how God spoke into the darkness and created the light, making it clear that God's power to create is unparalleled. This stanza is followed by a powerful comparison of God's wrath and mercy, with the destruction of Sodom on one hand, and the mercy and grace he showed us by shedding his blood on the cross. Finally, the chorus is repeated, making it clear that no matter how awesome God is, he is a loving God who reigns over us with wisdom, power, and love.

Greatest man in history

-Had no servents, yet they called him Master

-Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher

-Had no medicine, yet they called him Healer

-He had no army, yet kings feared Him

-He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world

-He committed no crime, yet they Cruicified Him

He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today

           "" His name is JESUS 👑""🇮🇱

Atheists like to say that we are all born atheists until we are told otherwise.

In the strictest sense, a child can’t be “born” an atheist or an agnostic or a Christian any more than he can be “born” a Republican or a Democrat.

Saying one is born an atheist is an example of a category error, i.e., the application of labels to something that has no properties in that category.

Another example of a category error would be discussing the smell of different colors. An atheist has made a moral, philosophical, intellectual and/or spiritual decision regarding the existence of God.

Infants obviously cannot have made any such decision, so trying to label them as atheists or non-atheists is a mistake in logic.

Saying children are “born” atheists, meaning that they do not believe in God, is to simply misdefine both belief and atheism.

Despite what some claim, atheism is not a passive lack of commitment; rather, it is an active denial of the existence of God.

Those who lack the knowledge to decide the question of God’s existence are “soft agnostics,” not “atheists.”

Further, newborns also don’t “believe” in whales, algebra, or Abraham Lincoln, so what an infant “believes” has very little to do with what is real.

It is a bit long, but it's worth reading.
He was betrayed by his disciple.
He was left alone by all his disciples.
He was killed for others mistake.
He was killed though he was innocent.
His own brothers didn't believe in him.
His mother had to watch him die.
Everyone knew he was innocent but still they killed him.
He is to be treated like Kings but he chose to serve us.
He still forgave the people who crucified and mocked him and he said Father forgive them for they not know what they are doing.
What has more greater love than this?.
All for our sake.
The man Jesus Christ. He showed us true Love.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

But There's a happy news. He rose up again after three days just as he told. There is no greater blessing than having God as our Father. He's coming back soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and prepare our hearts for him.

This is the prophecy about the second coming of Jesus

Zechariah 13:7
“Awake, sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is close to me!” declares the LORD Almighty. “Strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered, and I will turn my hand against the little ones.

This is the fulfillment of the prophecy.

Matthew 26:31

Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’

This happened near 30 AD.

Hosea 6:1-2
Come, let us return to the LORD. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.
After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence.



In prophecies 1day is equal to 1000 years. Which means after two thousand years Jesus will return again.
And on the third day which is the 3rd millennium, we will live in his sight. We all know we cannot see God's face and live on Earth. So it's the second coming of Jesus.

Luke 21:11 ►

There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

Matthew 24:6
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

We are the witnesses of all these things. From the death of Jesus to 2030 there are 2000 years.9 years is left until the 2000 years are complete after Jesus's death. Jesus is coming soon. Let's all repent and turn from our old ways and turn to the Lord.

Praise the Lord.

Peace and Love to you all.


Easter is pagan, the resurrection day of the Lord is correct and please stop taking the Lord's name in vain like saying omg or using it with a bad word or taking it in anyway that is in vain. Even the devil trembles in his name and we shouldn't use the powerful name like that. For the people who says Jesus is not God here's a verse.

Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

God bless you all.

Please spread this message to the ends of the world.

There are some specific angels that constantly, day and night, forever and ever, fly around the Throne singing: "Holy, Holy, Holy; Yahuwah God Almighty - who was, who is, who is to come." That's it. For a while, as a younger child, I wondered "Wouldn't God get bored of hearing it?" or "Wouldn't those angels get bored of singing it?"

But then... this song. Oh, Brother Rich - God bless your memory. This song. As the years since Rich Mullins penned this masterpiece, the music being put to it has grown more and more beautiful, majestic, wonderful.

I could sing this over and over, endlessly forever, with tears of joy flowing down my cheeks as I told MY God how amazing I thought he was.

Now I understand why those angels don't get bored of singing "Holy, holy, holy" over and over, endlessly.

Now I begin to understand how God is not bored hearing it. Could you ever be bored hearing the ones you love most tell you, "I love you"?
