You have filled me with peace

You have set this captive free
Lord I can't help but sing

In Your promises
My confidence
Is Your faithfulness

Meaning & Inspiration

"Yes and Amen" is a worship song organized around a series of titles for God, Father of kindness, giver of mercy, beautiful Savior, blessed redeemer, each paired with a specific action credited to that title. Grace, rescue from darkness, peace, and help in time of need are named directly rather than described abstractly, giving the song's gratitude concrete shape. The chorus states its central theological claim plainly, borrowing language from Paul's description of God's promises as "Yes and Amen" in Christ, meaning every promise finds certain fulfillment rather than remaining conditional. A later verse extends that faithfulness into deliverance imagery, describing rescue from ashes and broken curses, language that treats the promises named earlier as already being fulfilled rather than merely hoped for. The closing bridge shifts from listing evidence to settled response, choosing rest specifically because confidence is placed in God's faithfulness rather than in personal effort or certainty about circumstances.
