Chris Shalom - POWER BELONGS TO YOU Lyrics

“Power Belongs to You” by Chris Shalom is a short, repetitive song of adoration built on one declaration: “In heaven and the earth, all power belongs to you.” The lines are repeated across the whole song, with small variations such as “It all belongs to you,” so the focus never leaves God’s authority over everything.

A brief bridge sets apart one more phrase, “Only you, only you, only you,” which narrows the praise to God alone. Nothing else is added in the way of story or request, so the song works as a congregational chant that can be extended as long as a gathering wishes to continue.

The lyric is close to Psalm 62:11, which says power belongs to God, to 1 Chronicles 29:11 on greatness, power, and glory in heaven and earth, and to Matthew 28:18, where all authority in heaven and on earth is given to Jesus. The message is simple and open-ended.
