Lyrics
In my wandering
Still Your love pursues me
Heaven's mystery
How You gave Your life
To set me free, O
God You do all things well
How awesome is our God
Patient and strong
How perfect is Your love for us
How powerful Your name
Greater than all
The One that came to save
Reigns victorious
So miraculous
Are the works of Your hand
It's so marvelous
How You know the end
From the beginning, O
God You do all things well
Nothing can shake us
God You are able
We have this promise
You're always faithful
The power of darkness
Holds us no longer
Nothing can stop us
God You are stronger

Meaning & Inspiration
How Awesome celebrates the character and saving work of God. The opening confession begins with wandering, but divine love continues to pursue and liberate. From there, the song gathers several reasons for praise: Gods patience, strength, perfect love, victorious reign, and marvelous works. Its language about Christ giving his life to set people free keeps the praise centered on redemption rather than human achievement.
The later lines move from wonder to confidence. God is described as knowing the end from the beginning, remaining faithful to his promise, and proving stronger than darkness. That progression gives the song a clear spiritual movement from rescue to assurance. The repeated declaration that God does all things well does not deny uncertainty; it rests confidence in divine wisdom and power. Together, the lyrics present worship as a response to grace, faithfulness, and the victory of the One who came to save.
