Meaning & Inspiration

The lyrics center on a single claim: every praise belongs to God. The opening line is repeated throughout, and the phrase "Every word of worship with one accord" places the singing in a shared, united setting. The wording is simple and suited to repetition, which lets a group take it up quickly.

The middle section names God as "Saviour," "Healer," and "Deliverer," and the names are answered with "Yes He is." That call-and-response pattern turns the titles into affirmations rather than descriptions alone. The closing sections return to the refrain and repeat "Every praise" several times before ending on "is to our God."

The emphasis on praise and united worship is similar to Psalm 150:6, which says everything that has breath should praise the Lord, and to Psalm 29:2, which speaks of giving the Lord the glory due His name. The song does not quote either verse directly.
