Autoridad (Authority) Lyrics

La creación oyó
La voz de su creador
Del polvo vida Él sopló
Y al mundo forma dio

Toda la oscuridad
Se fue al oír Su voz
La noche pronto se terminará
Tu luz la vencerá

Sólo tu voz
Tiene toda la autoridad
Sólo mi Dios
Tiene toda la autoridad
 
Mi lucha tuya es
Conoces el final
Te adoro porque todo alrededor
Se rinde ante tu voz

El cielo triunfará
Cadenas caerán
Demonios huirán
Ante Su majestad
Si Dios es por nosotros
¿Porque voy a temer?
Nada podra negarle
Su gloria y su poder

El cielo triunfará
Cadenas caerán
Demonios huirán
Ante Su majestad
Si Dios es por nosotros
No hay nada que temer
Nada podrá negarle
Su gloria y su poder

Autoridad (Authority) Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Released on July 10, 2020, as part of their impactful album *Graves into Gardens*, Elevation Worship’s song "Autoridad" (Authority) immediately draws focus to a central truth of the Christian faith: the absolute power and dominion of Jesus Christ. This track, sung primarily in Spanish, powerfully communicates the depth and breadth of the authority Jesus holds, not as a distant, theoretical concept, but as a living, active reality that impacts every aspect of life and creation. The message is rooted in the biblical narrative of Christ's life, death, resurrection, and ascension, which culminated in His being seated at the right hand of God, endowed with all authority in heaven and on earth.

The core meaning behind "Autoridad" is a declaration and celebration of Jesus's supreme rule. It reflects the profound theological truth that through His victory on the cross and His resurrection, Christ conquered sin, death, and the powers of darkness. This isn't just a historical event; it's the basis for His present and eternal authority. The song calls people to recognize and respond to this truth, acknowledging that every other power or claim to authority ultimately bows to His name. This resonates deeply with passages like Matthew 28:18, where Jesus Himself proclaims, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." It also echoes Philippians 2:9-11, which states that God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name that is above every name, "so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." The song channels this spirit of universal subjugation and worship before the King of Kings.

Analyzing the song's impact, "Autoridad" employs a musical landscape that supports its weighty theme. It builds with a sense of reverence and escalating power, mirroring the ever-increasing understanding of Christ's dominion. The melody and arrangement create an atmosphere fitting for declaring the sovereignty of God – strong, steady, and ultimately triumphant. The vocal delivery conveys both awe and conviction, inviting those who hear it to join in this declaration of faith. The song isn't merely stating a fact; it's an act of worship, positioning the believer under the authority they are proclaiming. This is where the message becomes personal: recognizing Christ's authority means surrendering to Him, trusting in His power over challenges, fears, and the spiritual forces described in Scripture. Colossians 2:15 speaks of Christ disarming the powers and authorities and triumphing over them by the cross, and "Autoridad" allows worshipers to stand in the truth of that victory, confident that the power that defeated the grave is active in their lives. The song serves as a reminder that because Jesus has authority, believers, through Him, have been given authority over the works of the enemy (Luke 10:19) and are seated with Him in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 2:6), under His headship, which is far above all rule and authority, power and dominion (Ephesians 1:19-23). It is a powerful call to lift one's gaze from earthly troubles to the One who reigns supreme, finding peace, strength, and hope in His unshakeable authority.
