Lyrics

Jesus I'll put You first
In my life nothing else will do
I'll spend the rest of my life
In Your house
Giving all to You


I'm so glad You're here
I'm so glad You're near
'Cause I need You
Yes I need You


The same power
That conquered the grave
Live in me
Live in me
Your love that
Rescued the earth
Lives in me
Lives in me

Meaning & Inspiration

“I’m So Glad – You Are Here” expresses a childlike commitment to place Jesus first. The opening lines connect devotion with a life spent in God’s house and freely given to him. Its short refrain then turns that commitment into a direct celebration of Christ’s nearness, presenting his presence as essential rather than optional. Simple repetition makes the confession clear and easy to carry into congregational or children’s worship.

The closing section grounds that nearness in resurrection life. Its language about the power that conquered the grave living within the believer closely reflects New Testament teaching about the Spirit who raised Jesus. The lyric also joins divine power with rescuing love, so strength is not treated as personal achievement. Across its compact sections, the song moves from putting Christ first, to rejoicing that he is near, to trusting the life and love he supplies. That progression gives the song a focused message of dependence, dedication, and resurrection hope.
