Lyrics
Verse 1
I sing my song to You, I give You praise
I lift my hands to You, my voice I raise
Because of who You are
I am who I am
We sing glory to the Lamb
You saved my soul from sin, answered my prayer
Dressed me in righteousness, none can compare
Showed me the path to walk, You showed me Your plan
We sing glory to the Lamb
Chorus
There's one name above earth and the sky
Lord Jehovah reigns, rules on high
We bow down before You, Great I Am
We sing glory to the Lamb
Verse 2
You are the only one who gave me hope
Took all the broken dreams and made them whole
You found the best in me and showed me who I am
We sing glory to the Lamb
There is no other name, no, that I can call
You showed me that You are my all in all
Your strength empowers me to be what I can
We sing glory to the Lamb
Chorus (Repeat x2)

Lamb of God, holy Lamb of God
You are the great I am
You're the King of Kings
You're the Lord of Lords
And we move at Your command
Chorus (Repeat)

Sing hallelujah to risen King
Sing hallelujah let His praises ring
Sing hallelujah to the great I Am
We sing glory to the Lamb
Outro (Repeat x4)
We sing glory to the Lamb

Meaning & Inspiration
"Glory to the Lamb" opens with direct address, lifting hands and raising a voice in praise before naming the reason for that praise, simply who God is rather than any single action performed. That reasoning, worship offered because of identity itself, frames the entire song's praise as response to character rather than only circumstance.
Its verses list specific acts of restoration, righteousness given, broken dreams made whole, hope offered where none existed, before naming no other name worth calling on instead. That exclusivity, no other name, places the song's gratitude entirely within a single, named relationship rather than general thankfulness.
Rooted in contemporary gospel worship's anthem tradition, the song functions as a declaration of exclusive devotion to Christ as both reigning King and sacrificed Lamb, its bridge naming him Great I Am, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, before its closing vamp calling for hallelujahs directed at the risen King.
