Let Me See Jesus

As we delve into the lyrics of Matt Redman's "Let Me See Jesus," we are reminded of the earnest longing to see and experience Jesus in a deeper, more profound way. This longing is echoed in the Bible, particularly in the book of Psalms, where David often expresses his yearning for God. In Psalm 42:1-2, David writes, "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?" 

The song's chorus, "Isn't He wonderful, Isn't He glorious, Isn't He powerful, Isn't He good to us," resonates with the sentiments expressed in Psalm 145:3, "Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; His greatness no one can fathom." The lyrics and these verses both express the awe-inspiring nature of God, His power, His glory, and His goodness. 

The song's bridge, "It's all for You, My heart's ovation, It's all for You, Heaven's procession, It's all for You, The song of creation, You are worthy of it all," echoes the sentiments in Revelation 4:11, "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being." Both the song and the scripture emphasize that all praise, honor, and glory belong to God, the Creator of all things.

As we reflect on these lyrics and the corresponding scriptures, we are reminded of the beauty and majesty of God, His power, His glory, and His goodness. We are also reminded of our deep longing to see and experience Him in a more profound way. 

So, let's ponder this: How does our daily life reflect this longing to see Jesus? How do we express our awe and wonder at His majesty, His power, His glory, and His goodness? How do we show that He is worthy of all our praise, honor, and glory? As we go about our daily lives, let's strive to see Jesus in all we do, to experience His presence in a deeper way, and to give Him all the praise, honor, and glory He so richly deserves.
