Mansion
Rita Springer Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There is a mansion in Heaven
Where the King of Glory dwells
There is a banqueting table
The Father and His son have prepared

Where angels bow
And elders throw their crowns
All the beasts of the field

And the birds of the air will shout

Fill this house with Your glory my Lord
Fill this place with Your praise
Fill this house with Your presence
Ancient of days

There is a mansion in heaven
Where the King of Glory dwells
I come to the banqueting table
The Father and His son have prepared

And I bow down
And I throw down my crown
With the beasts of the field
And the birds of the air I will shout

Fill my (our) life with Your glory my Lord
Fill my (our) heart with Your love

Fill my (our) soul with Your presence
I can't get enough

Overall Meaning

In the song "Mansion" by Rita Springer, she talks about the mansion in heaven where the King of Glory dwells. The lyrics lead us to imagine a beautiful and grand place where the Father and his son have prepared a banqueting table that angels and elders bow down to, and beasts of the field and birds of the air shout. The writer is expressing the desire to fill this house with God's glory, praising Him and inviting Him to come in and fill her life, heart, and soul with His presence, exclaiming that she can't get enough of Him.

The song appears to be an invitation for the Lord to come into our lives as we sing it in a worship setting. It encourages us to long for the presence of God and expresses the writer's heart in wanting to exalt the Lord and wanting Him to fill her (our) life with His glory, presence, and love. She recognizes that there is nothing that can satisfy us more than the presence of our God.

Overall, the song encourages believers to come before the throne of God, throw all we have at His feet, and embrace Him. It's an invitation to live for God and with God, recognizing that there is no one greater or more significant than Him, and there is no life worth living without Him.
