Holy Song

As we delve into the lyrics of "Holy Song" by Bethel Music, we are reminded of the profound joy and peace that comes from knowing and walking with the Lord. The song echoes the sentiments found in Psalm 91:1, "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty." The lyrics and this verse both speak to the comfort and security we find in God's presence, under His protective wing.

The song also beautifully captures the essence of God's mercy and the privilege we have been given to be chosen by Him. This sentiment is mirrored in 1 Peter 2:9, "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." The song and this verse both remind us of our unique position as God's chosen ones and the responsibility we have to praise Him.

The chorus of the song, "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty. Worthy, worthy, worthy, all of the earth is full of Your glory," is a powerful declaration of God's holiness and worthiness. This echoes the heavenly scene in Revelation 4:8, where the four living creatures never stop saying, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." The song and this verse both invite us to join in this eternal song of praise, recognizing God's holiness and the glory that fills the earth.

The song concludes with a beautiful picture of the beauty we will behold when we stand before God's throne, a scene reminiscent of Revelation 5:13, "Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: 'To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, forever and ever!'"

As we reflect on the lyrics of this song and the corresponding Bible verses, we are invited to consider the depth of our personal relationship with God. Are we truly living in the joy and peace of His presence? Do we recognize the privilege of being chosen by Him and the responsibility that comes with it? Are we joining in the eternal song of praise, declaring His holiness and worthiness? And are we eagerly anticipating the day when we will stand before His throne, beholding His beauty and joining in the heavenly chorus?

Let this song and these verses inspire us to deepen our relationship with God, to live in the joy and peace of His presence, to embrace our calling as His chosen ones, to join in the eternal song of praise, and to eagerly anticipate the day when we will stand before His throne. Let us live each day in the light of His glory, for all of the earth is indeed full of His glory.
