Lyrics

Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh


You are the God 


They bow before You 


My hands stretch wide 


Surrendered to You 


El Shaddai You are before me 


Great I am is glorified 


Yahweh Yahweh 


We praise You 


Yahweh we lift You high 


We magnify 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh


Chains they fall when we call on You 


Emmanuel You are with us 


No greater love 


No heart beats of You 


Yahweh Yahweh 


We praise You 


Yahweh we lift You high 


We magnify 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh


I cast off Idols


There is no more distraction 


You have my attention


You are holy 


Without You I am not 


Yes You are welcome here 


I give You my all 


You are holy 


Yahweh Yahweh 


We praise You 


Yahweh we lift You high 


We magnify 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh we lift high 


Yahweh

Meaning & Inspiration

This worship song is built around the name Yahweh and a repeated call to lift God high. The verses describe open hands, surrender, and focused attention, presenting worship as more than spoken praise. Titles such as El Shaddai, Emmanuel, and the Great I Am gather biblical names and descriptions of God into a confession of his power, presence, and holiness.

The imagery of falling chains expresses freedom associated with calling on God, while the rejection of idols turns the song toward undivided devotion. Its later lines move from public praise to personal consecration: distractions are set aside, attention belongs to God, and everything is offered to him. The recurring chorus then gathers those commitments into corporate praise and magnification. Biblical connections are clearest in the commands to exalt the Lord together, turn away from idols, and offer oneself to God. The result is a prayerful song of adoration, surrender, and confidence in Gods presence.
