Lyrics
(God is doing a
Great work
Great work)
He's working on me
He's working on me
And He will finish
Rest ruling and abiding in my spirit
Finishing the work, yes He is y'all
God is doing a great work
And His grace is still sufficient
He's providing the present
God is keeping me
God is humbling me
Thank You Lord
Thank You for keeping me
Teaching me how to receive
Every blessing, a great work
So sometime in the night
If you believe God is working
If you see God moving
If you receive his blessing
I said God is doing a great work
On a mountain high
God is doing a
On your valley low
God is doing a
Everywhere you turn
There's no place you can go
Where God is not working
God is working, oh yes He is
Good work
Oh yes He is
Teaching me
How to receive
Teach me God
How to receive
Teach me Lord

Meaning & Inspiration
“A Great Work - Reprise” centers on God’s continuing activity in a believer’s life. Its repeated assurance that God is working, keeping, teaching, and humbling gives the song a testimony-like character. The lyric does not present spiritual growth as self-made achievement; grace remains sufficient, and every blessing is received as God’s provision. Even references to mountains and valleys reinforce the claim that divine care is present in every circumstance.
The promise that God will finish the work closely echoes Philippians 1:6, while the declaration of sufficient grace recalls 2 Corinthians 12:9. These connections support the song’s emphasis on patient formation rather than instant perfection. Gratitude becomes the fitting response: the singer thanks the Lord for preservation and asks to be taught how to receive. The reprise therefore functions as both confession and praise, affirming that God’s work continues through difficulty, dependence, and change.
