I will sing to the Lord
For he has triumphed gloriously
The horse and his rider
He has thrown into the sea
The Lord is my strength and song
And he has become my salvation
He is my God and I will praise him
My father’s God and I will exalt him
The Lord is a man of war
The Lord is his name
Pharaoh’s chariots and his army
He cast into the sea
His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea
The depths have covered them
They sank to the bottom like a stone
Your right hand oh Lord has become glorious in power
Your right hand oh Lord has dashed the enemy in pieces
And in the greatness of Your excellence
You have overthrown those who rose against You
You sent forth Your wrath
It consumed them like stubble
And with the blast of Your nostrils
The waters were gathered together
The floods stood upright like a heap
The depths congealed in the heart of the sea
The enemy said ‘I will pursue
I will overtake I will divide the spoil’
My desire shall be satisfied on them
I will draw my sword
My hand shall destroy them
You blew with Your wind
The sea covered them
They sank like lead in the mighty waters
Who is like You oh Lord among the gods?
Who is like You glorious in holiness
Fearful in praises doing wonders?
Who is like You oh Lord among the gods?
Who is like You glorious in holiness
Fearful in praises doing wonders?
I said “Who”?
Who is like my God?
The depths of who You are
No eyes have seen it
You are worthy oh God
You are worthy
The depths of who You are
No eyes have seen it
You are worthy oh God
You are worthy
The weight of who You are
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?
The weight of who You are
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?
There are questions we would never find answers
This is one of them
No words can carry the weight of who You are
The weight of who You are
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?
The weight (Of who You are)
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?
The weight of who You are
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?
The weight of who You are
No words can carry
Who is like You oh Lord?
Who is like You?

Meaning & Inspiration
The song "Who is Like You" by Dunsin Oyekan is a worship anthem centered on the profound theme of God's absolute uniqueness and incomparable nature. Through repeated declarations and questions, the lyrics emphasize the vast gulf between the divine and everything else. The central inquiry, "Who is like You oh Lord?", serves as a foundation, inviting reflection on God's singular position above all creation. This foundational question is reiterated throughout the song, creating a meditative and focused atmosphere of adoration and awe towards the Almighty.
A significant aspect of the lyrics lies in their attempt to articulate the inexpressible magnitude of God's being. Phrases such as "The weight of who You are, No words can carry" and "The depths of who You are, No eyes have seen it" highlight the transcendent and mysterious dimensions of God. These lines convey the idea that human language and perception are inherently limited when trying to grasp the fullness of the divine essence. This recognition of God's immeasurable nature fuels the worship, acknowledging that His reality extends far beyond human comprehension.
The song integrates a powerful passage reminiscent of the Song of Moses found in Exodus 15. This section recounts God's triumphant actions in delivering the Israelites from Egypt, specifically His power displayed at the Red Sea. By detailing God's victory over Pharaoh, His command over the waters, and His destruction of the enemy, the lyrics demonstrate God's unmatched strength and authority. The explicit question "Who is like You oh Lord among the gods? Who is like You glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises doing wonders?" directly drawn from this biblical narrative, provides a historical and scriptural basis for the song's central theme of God's unparalleled nature and fearful holiness, demonstrated through His mighty acts.
Beyond declaring God's uniqueness, the song also affirms His inherent worthiness, stating, "You are worthy oh God, You are worthy." This declaration arises from the recognition of God's incomparable attributes and actions. The lyrics further touch upon the mystery surrounding God, noting that "There are questions we would never find answers, This is one of them," underscoring the profound depth that remains beyond human understanding. The inclusion of the Yoruba phrase "O tobi, Oluwa e tobi," meaning "He is great, Lord You are great," adds another layer to the expression of God's magnitude and greatness, reflecting a diverse expression of praise.
Overall, "Who is Like You" is a worship piece that builds intensity through repetition and draws upon powerful biblical imagery to convey God's incomparable majesty, power, holiness, and worthiness. It serves as a call to acknowledge the vastness and mystery of God's being, prompting a response of deep reverence and adoration.
