Elevation Worship - Fullness Lyrics
Lyrics
Fullness of eternal promise
Stirring in Your sons and daughters
Earth revealing heaven's wonders
Spirit come, Spirit come
What You spoke is now unfolding
All Your children shall behold it
Dreams awaken in this moment
Spirit come, Spirit come
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Now the world awaits Your presence
And this power is within us
We will rise to be Your image
Spirit come, Spirit come
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Tongues of fire, testifying of the Son
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Speak revival, prophesy like it is done
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Tongues of fire, testifying of the Son
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Speak revival, prophesy like it is done
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Let our hearts continue burning
For our King is soon returning
As we hold to this assurance
Spirit come, Spirit come
Spirit come, Spirit come
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Pour it out, let Your love run over
Here and now, let Your glory fill this house
Tongues of fire, testifying of the Son
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Speak revival, prophesy like it is done
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Tongues of fire, testifying of the Son
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come
Speak revival, prophesy like it is done
One desire, Spirit come, Spirit come

Meaning & Inspiration
Released in 2017 as part of the album *There Is a Cloud*, Elevation Worship's "Fullness" is a powerful declaration of divine presence and the active work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers and the world. The song's essence is rooted in the anticipation of God's promises being fulfilled and the desire for His glory to be manifest on earth. It speaks of a stirring within God's people, a recognition that the "fullness of eternal promise" is not a distant hope but a present reality beginning to unfold. This concept finds resonance in Romans 8:19, which speaks of creation eagerly awaiting the revealing of the sons of God, implying a cosmic expectation of God’s kingdom breaking through. The lyrics poetically describe "Earth revealing heaven's wonders," suggesting a supernatural overlay on the natural world, a theme echoed in verses like Isaiah 11:9, which paints a picture of the earth being filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. The repeated plea, "Spirit come," acts as a fervent prayer for divine intervention and empowerment, mirroring the early church's desperate need for the Spirit’s presence as described in Acts 4:31, where the place where they were gathered was shaken.
The narrative arc of "Fullness" moves from this internal stirring to an outward expression of God's love and glory. The chorus, "Pour it out, let Your love run over, here and now, let Your glory fill this house," is a direct invocation for an outpouring of God's grace and manifest presence. This is not a passive waiting but an active invitation, reflecting the biblical understanding that God inhabits the praises of His people (Psalm 22:3) and desires to dwell among them. The song encourages a proactive stance, stating, "Now the world awaits Your presence, and this power is within us. We will rise to be Your image." This speaks to the Great Commission, where believers are empowered by the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead to be His witnesses (Acts 1:8). The imagery of "tongues of fire" and "testifying of the Son" directly alludes to Pentecost, as described in Acts 2, where the Holy Spirit descended like tongues of fire, enabling the apostles to speak boldly about Jesus. The call to "speak revival, prophesy like it is done" reflects a faith-based perspective where speaking God’s word with conviction is seen as bringing spiritual realities into being, aligning with Hebrews 11:1, which defines faith as the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. The song culminates in the anticipation of Christ’s return, urging believers to remain fervent and assured, drawing strength from the enduring promises of God. Ultimately, "Fullness" is a testament to the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, a call to embrace God’s promises, and a vibrant expression of hope for His kingdom’s coming.
