Marizu - My Deed Lyrics
Lyrics
Your will, my deed
That is what I'm living for
With You in me
No reason for being lost
Everything I could need
I have within me
With You in me
My vision is plain to see
In You, I found me
In You, that's where I live
Identity is what You gave to me
Changed man, I'm a living vessel of a deity
I realized I was the one that You were calling by name
I was down in the dumps, but You loved me the same
Yeah, yeah
Wasn't merit, it was all by Your grace
Yeah, yeah
Called out, I thank You, Lord, for the day
I say my prayers: thank You, Lord, for the day
I say my prayers, give thanks to Yahweh
Your will, my deed
That is what I'm living for
With You in me
No reason for being lost
Everything I could need
I have within me
With You in me
My vision is plain to see
In You, I found me
In You, that's where I live
Your word is my illumination
Guiding me through life
Showing me the revelation
Of Your kind of life
A life of peace and joy I find in You
Blind seeing again
Lame walking again
Holy Spirit within
I'm walking in Your will
Your will, my deed
That is what I'm living for
With You in me
No reason for being lost
Everything I could need
I have within me
With You in me
My vision is plain to see
In You, I found me
In You, that's where I live L

Meaning & Inspiration
Marizu's powerful track, "My Deed," released as part of the "Forever" album in late 2022, resonates deeply as a testament to the transformative power of faith. The song unfolds as a profound declaration of surrender and newfound purpose, born from a profound encounter with the divine. The central theme revolves around the idea of aligning one's actions, their "deed," with God's divine will, a concept beautifully echoed in the Apostle Paul's encouragement to the Philippians: "Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling" (Philippians 2:12). Marizu articulates this principle not as a burden, but as the very essence of a life lived in abundance and clarity, asserting, "Your will, my deed, that is what I'm living for." This surrender, however, is not an act of self-annihilation, but rather an embracing of true identity. The lyrics powerfully convey the realization that true selfhood is found not in personal striving, but in God's recognition and calling, as Marizu sings about being called by name and finding his identity. This mirrors the promise in Jeremiah 1:5, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart." The profound realization of being a "living vessel of a deity" speaks to the indwelling Holy Spirit, a theme central to Christian teaching, underscoring that salvation is a gift of grace, not earned merit, as the artist gratefully acknowledges, "Wasn't merit, it was all by Your grace." This understanding aligns with Ephesians 2:8-9, which states, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast." The song’s narrative arc moves from a state of being "down in the dumps" to a place of clear vision and purpose, a journey facilitated by God's unwavering love. This illumination is further described through the metaphor of God's word as guidance, providing "revelation" for a life filled with "peace and joy." This spiritual awakening, where the blind can see and the lame walk, is not merely metaphorical but represents the profound restoration and healing offered through faith, reminiscent of the miracles described in the Gospels. Ultimately, "My Deed" is an inspiring anthem for anyone seeking to anchor their life in divine purpose, understanding that true fulfillment and an unwavering sense of direction are found when one’s actions become a sincere reflection of God’s perfect will.
