Lyrics

How can I say thanks
For the things you have done for me
Things so undeserved


Yet You gave to prove your love for me
The voices of a million angels
Could not express my gratitude
All that I am and ever hope to be
I owe it all to thee


To God be the glory, to God be the glory
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done
With His blood He has saved me
With His power He has raised me
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done


Just let me live my life
And let it be pleasing Lord to thee
And if I gain any praise
Let it go to Calvary, Calvary...


With His blood He has saved me
With His power He has raised me
To God be the glory
For the things He has done
He has done!

Meaning & Inspiration

“My Tribute” is an expression of gratitude that directs every honor back to God. The opening question recognizes that ordinary words cannot adequately account for mercy received without merit. Even the imagined praise of countless angels falls short, so the lyric answers gratitude with a life offered to God. Its recurring declaration, “To God be the glory,” keeps attention on divine action rather than personal accomplishment.\n\nThe song names salvation through Christ’s blood and rising life through God’s power as the grounds for praise. Its final prayer asks that daily living please the Lord and that any recognition be redirected to Calvary. That movement gives the lyric both a celebratory and surrendered character: thanksgiving becomes worship, and worship shapes conduct. The emphasis closely reflects biblical calls to glorify God in every part of life and to refuse boasting except in the cross of Christ.
