I tried so hard to see it

You take the broken things
And raise them to glory

Chorus: Brandon Lake
You are my champion

Champion (feat. Brandon Lake & Maryanne J. George) | Maverick City Music | UPPERROOM | TRIBL

Champion Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

"Champion" by Maryanne J. George featuring Brandon Lake is a powerful worship anthem that delves into the transformative truth of God's identity as the ultimate conqueror and the profound impact this has on the believer's self-perception and spiritual authority. Released on December 18, 2020, as part of a session involving Maverick City Music, UPPERROOM, and TRIBL, the song articulates a journey from self-doubt and the struggle for worthiness to the liberating realization of identity found solely in Christ's victory. The initial verses convey a sense of wrestling with the idea that God would choose someone flawed and imperfect, contrasting human striving with divine grace that takes brokenness and raises it to glory.

The core message is powerfully declared in the chorus, which serves as a bold statement of faith. It proclaims God as the personal champion, highlighting His absolute power over all obstacles, symbolized by giants falling in His presence. The lyrics emphasize God's perfect record, having won every battle, and directly connect His victory to the believer's identity: "I am who You say I am." This affirmation of self-worth rooted in divine declaration, not personal achievement, is coupled with the truth of being crowned with confidence and seated in heavenly places with the One who has triumphed over everything.

As the song progresses, the focus shifts to the active reception of this truth. The second verse acknowledges the process of learning to receive God's grace, allowing the striving for acceptance or validation to cease because victory is already secured through Him. The interlude section serves as an emphatic declaration of the completeness of Christ's work, reiterating that "You've conquered it all" and affirming that in Him, there is nothing missing, empty, or void – His record is perfect.

The bridge introduces the theme of delegated authority given to believers through Jesus. It describes a call to action, where lifting one's voice and opening one's mouth in faith results in walls coming down and miracles breaking out. This section strongly emphasizes the power available to the believer through Christ, enabling them to walk in the authority He has bestowed. It reinforces the idea that this power is not inherent but is a gift received through Jesus.

The final choruses and outro circle back to the central theme, reinforcing God's unwavering role as Champion even in the midst of storms. The repeated declaration of being seated in heavenly places and undefeated by the power of God's name underscores the established position and security believers have because of Christ's finished work. The song culminates in a resounding declaration of identity and victory, solidifying the truth that the believer's standing and triumph are entirely dependent on and derived from the One who has conquered it all.
