Lyrics
Your love endures forever
Reaches beyond the heavens
I will praise, I will praise
Your love is better than life
Your name alone satisfies
I will sing, I will sing
Chorus:
You are my God; You are my song
You are my love; I am found in You
Your holiness, Your majesty
Your presence fills my life
And the earth will shake, the skies light up
They join with us
Live to make Your praises glorious, glorious
No longer I who live it
It's Christ who lives in me
I am Yours, I am Yours
I'm planted deep within You
My heart and soul will sing
Forevermore, forevermore
(Chorus)

Meaning & Inspiration
“Glorious” joins personal devotion with a broad call for creation to magnify God. The opening praises divine love as enduring, life-giving, and greater than every other source of satisfaction. Its chorus names God as song, love, and the place where identity is found, then expands outward as earth and sky join the praise. Glory is not treated as a private feeling but as a life shaped to make God’s name known.
The second verse draws clearly from Galatians 2:20, confessing that the former self no longer governs because Christ lives within. Psalm 63:3 also provides a close biblical parallel to the declaration that God’s love is better than life and therefore worthy of praise. Together, these themes connect union with Christ to lasting worship: belonging to Christ gives the singer a new center, while divine holiness and majesty summon an answer of praise. The song’s repeated word “glorious” gathers those convictions into one purpose.
