You alone deserve the honour
So we lift You high
Yahweh, Yahweh
You alone deserve my worship
You alone deserve my praise
You alone deserve the honour
So we lift You high

Meaning & Inspiration
“Yahweh” is built around exclusive devotion to God. Its short verses declare that worship, praise, and honor belong to him alone, while the recurring refrain lifts the divine name above every rival. The lyric gains force through simplicity: rather than adding a story or a list of blessings, it stays with the worthiness of God and the fitting response of adoration.
The name Yahweh recalls the biblical revelation of God’s covenant name, and the upward movement of the refrain reflects passages that exalt the Lord above all. The repeated word “alone” also places the song within Scripture’s consistent call to worship no other god. As a result, the lyric functions as both praise and confession. It celebrates God’s supreme worth while expressing undivided allegiance, allowing a small number of lines to sustain a clear declaration of honor, reverence, and worship.
