Who can be like our Lord
With might and strength the king of kings
With endless love and flowing grace
He is the Lord above all things

Now hook to Him, who can do
Exceedingly above our thoughts
Be all the Glory and the praise
There is no one greater than our king

Meaning & Inspiration
“God Alone” by Joyful Way and HLE is a live worship song that gives all praise to God alone. The first verse asks who can be like the Lord, “with might and strength the king of kings,” a question close to Exodus 15:11 and Psalm 86:8. It describes endless love and flowing grace and calls Him the Lord above all things.
The second verse speaks of bringing His name into the battle and holding it high so that all will know, trusting in the name of the Lord. The chorus says no one can take His place, and that the worshippers give their crowns and say “You reign,” recalling the scene of Revelation 4:10-11.
The bridge praises the One who can do “exceedingly above our thoughts,” which echoes Ephesians 3:20. The refrain “God alone” returns between sections and in the outro, so the congregation can join in. The song’s message is God’s unmatched greatness and the surrender of every honor to Him.
