Lyrics
I am weary from the waves
Crashing over every day
God of mercy, please come rescue me
I am longing for Your voice
Gentle whisper in the noise
Father, tell me everything's all right, yeah
Your power and Your presence
Breaks strongholds, King of Heaven
When You speak, mountains move
I believe there will be breakthrough, yeah
You alone can take my scars
And piece by piece restore my heart
Take what's broken, make it whole again, oh-oh
'Cause Your power and Your presence
Breaks strongholds, King of Heaven
When You speak, mountains move
I believe there will be breakthrough, oh-oh
There will be breakthrough, oh
Shake the mountains, break the walls apart
Open the Heavens, Almighty God, You are
Overcomer, Defender of my heart
It's who You are, God
By Your power, the oceans open wide
Your fire falls down, Heaven and Earth collide
King Jesus, forever by my side
Shake the mountains, yes
Shake the mountains, break the walls apart
Open the Heavens, Almighty God, You are
Overcomer, Defender of my heart, oh-oh, yeah
And by Your power, the oceans open wide
Your fire falls down, Heaven and Earth collide
King Jesus, forever by my side, yeah
'Cause Your power and Your presence
Breaks strongholds, King of Heaven
When You speak, mountains move
I believe there will be breakthrough
And Your power and Your presence
Breaks strongholds, King of Heaven
When You speak, mountains move
I believe there will be breakthrough
There will be breakthrough
There will be breakthrough
I know, I know, I know
There will be breakthrough
I know You are moving now, God
I know You are healing now, God
You are moving, You are healing, You are speaking
There will be, there will be victory
I know, I know, I know
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory, oh-oh
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
I know, I know, yeah
There will be, come on, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here, oh-oh, yeah
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
There will be, there will be victory here
We believe, shake the mountains
Shake the mountains, you sing, break the walls apart
Open the Heavens, Almighty God, You are
Overcomer, Defender of my heart
And by Your power, the oceans open wide
Your fire falls down, Heaven and Earth collide
King Jesus, forever by my side
Shake the mountains, shake the mountains
Shake the mountains, break the walls apart
Open the Heavens, Almighty God, You are
Overcomer, Defender of my heart
By Your power, by Your power
And by Your power, the oceans open wide
Your fire falls down, Heaven and Earth collide

Meaning & Inspiration
BreakThrough frames distress as a prayer for rescue, restoration, and the nearness of God. Waves, noise, scars, and brokenness describe sustained pressure, while the appeal for a gentle voice seeks reassurance from the Father. The chorus answers that weariness with confidence in divine power and presence. Strongholds breaking and mountains moving express faith that obstacles are not beyond the authority of the King of Heaven.
The bridge expands those images through opened seas, falling fire, and walls coming apart. These phrases recall biblical accounts of deliverance and portray God as overcomer and defender. Repeated declarations of breakthrough, healing, and victory give the latter sections the character of persistent prayer rather than a detailed prediction about circumstances. The song holds vulnerability and confidence together: restoration is requested honestly, yet hope rests in the action and companionship of King Jesus. Its central emphasis is that divine presence can bring freedom and wholeness amid hardship.
