Jesus Culture - Alive Lyrics
Lyrics
You breath your life into my lungs
You bring to life these dry bones
I know that you're alive
You called me one you love your own
In my heart you made your home
I know that you're alive
I'm coming alive
You called me one you love your own
In my heart you made your home
I know that you're alive
I'm coming alive
I'm coming alive
I'm coming alive
We will make him known
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will shout it out
Jesus is alive
He's alive
To all the dry and weary souls
Take joy
Take heart
Be filled with hope
I know that he's alive
To all the ones who have no home
Get up and run you're going home
I know that he's alive
I'm coming alive
I'm coming alive
I'm coming alive
We will make him known
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will shout it out
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will make him known
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will shout it out
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will make him known
Jesus is alive
He's alive
We will shout it out
Jesus is alive
He's alive

Jesus Culture ft. Kim Walker-Smith - Alive In You (Live, Lyrics And Chords)
Meaning & Inspiration
Released on March 11, 2014, as part of the *Jesus Culture Reconstructed, Vol. 1* album, "Alive" by Jesus Culture is a powerful anthem resonating with the profound truth of resurrection and transformative grace. The song draws deeply from the core of Christian belief, celebrating the victory of Jesus over death and its subsequent impact on the lives of believers. Its genesis lies in the vibrant worship tradition of Jesus Culture, a ministry known for its passionate and uninhibited expression of faith, aiming to ignite a similar fire in listeners. The lyrical narrative speaks directly to the experience of spiritual rebirth, echoing the sentiment found in Ezekiel 37:1-14, where the prophet sees a valley of dry bones brought back to life by the breath of the Lord, a potent metaphor for God’s power to revitalize the spiritually dead. The repeated declaration, "I know that you're alive," coupled with the personal testimony, "I'm coming alive," is a direct affirmation of faith in Jesus' resurrection, a cornerstone of Christian doctrine as articulated in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4. This personal awakening is presented not just as an internal experience, but as something to be shared, a call to "make Him known." The song's compassionate outreach to "dry and weary souls" and those "who have no home" directly mirrors the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, urging believers to spread the message of hope and salvation. The encouragement to "take joy, take heart, be filled with hope" is a direct echo of Jesus' words in John 16:33, where He assures His followers that in Him, they can find peace despite the world's troubles. "Alive" is more than just a song; it’s a declaration of victory and an invitation to experience the fullness of life that comes from knowing the living God, offering a message of renewal and belonging to all who hear it.
