David Funk - When You Walk Into the Room Lyrics

When You Walk Into the Room Lyrics

Come on, just lift up your voices
Just sing out a new song, it's sittin' right there
Just lift up your voices, just everything within you
Sing a new song to the Lord, let it rise

Maybe tonight you lift your hands for the first time
There's freedom here, that anything could happen
The Bible says lift your hands, it's not an option
It's not a request, it's a command
Lift your hands, ooh-oh

Sing out a new song to the Lord
For He's great and greatly to be praised, ooh-ooh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

So come and consume God all we are
We give You permission, our hearts are Yours

We love You, we can't enough
All this is for You Jesus


When You Walk Into The Room (Spontaneous) [Live] - Bethel Music, Jenn Johnson, David Funk

When You Walk Into the Room Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

"When You Walk Into The Room," featuring David Funk alongside Bethel Music and Jenn Johnson in a spontaneous live recording released on March 26, 2024, captures the essence of a worship moment unfolding in real-time. The song begins not with a polished verse-chorus structure, but with direct, invitational calls to participation. It urges listeners to "lift up your voices," to "sing out a new song," emphasizing that this expression is readily available, "sittin' right there," and should come from "everything within you." This opening sets a tone of engaged, heartfelt worship, encouraging individuals to fully involve themselves in the act of praise. The call to "let it rise" suggests an offering ascending to the divine.

This initial invitation quickly becomes more specific, addressing the physical posture of worship. The lyrics directly encourage lifting hands, presenting it not as a mere suggestion but as a practice rooted in scriptural instruction. The assertion that it is "not an option," "not a request," but "a command" reflects a conviction often found in passionate worship settings, aiming to remove hesitation and encourage full, uninhibited expression before God. Coupled with the declaration that "there's freedom here, that anything could happen," this section underscores the belief that physical and vocal participation are vital components of encountering divine presence and experiencing transformative freedom in that space.

The song transitions into a deeper declaration of God's nature and worthiness. The simple yet profound phrase "Sing out a new song to the Lord, For He's great and greatly to be praised" serves as a foundational truth underlying the entire worship experience. This serves as a central anchor, reminding both the leader and the congregation of the ultimate focus: the greatness of God. The subsequent repetition of "Oh-oh-oh-oh" and the simple, powerful affirmation "Great are You Lord" build an atmosphere of adoration and awe, creating space for contemplation and communal agreement on God's immense nature.

The core of the song unfolds with the repeated, fervent plea and surrender: "So come and consume God all we are." This central theme encapsulates a profound desire for God's presence to fully inhabit and transform the worshippers. It is a bold invitation for divine immersion, moving beyond intellectual acknowledgment to a yearning for total absorption and yielding. The accompanying lines, "We give You permission, our hearts are Yours," articulate the necessary human response to such a divine invitation – conscious, willing surrender of ownership and control. The repeated declaration, "We want You," underscores the deep, personal desire driving this offering, highlighting a relationship built on longing for divine intimacy.

As the song progresses, the repetition of the central surrender becomes more layered and interactive, reflecting the live, spontaneous environment. Phrases like "We want what You want" and "We need what You have Lord" emerge as responses, showing a reciprocal dynamic in the worship – not just asking for God's presence, but aligning desires with His and acknowledging dependency on Him. The shift from "hearts are Yours" to "our lives are Yours" in later iterations broadens the scope of the surrender, encompassing every aspect of existence. This communal, responsive element deepens the sense of corporate surrender and shared pursuit of God's will and presence within "this room, like the upper room," invoking imagery of significant past encounters with the divine spirit.

The song culminates in a powerful, simple declaration of love and complete dedication: "We love You and we can't get enough, All this is for You, Jesus." This final section summarizes the motivation behind the entire spontaneous outpouring – an overflowing, insatiable love for Jesus and the recognition that the worship, the surrender, and the very lives offered are ultimately directed towards Him. It is a statement of devotion that transcends the moment, pointing to a life fully centered on and offered for the object of their affection. The raw, repeated expression of not being able to "get enough" underscores the infinite value placed on the relationship with Jesus, making the entire worship experience a pure offering of love.
