Lyrics
How can I say thank ya
For all the things you've done for me
How can I say I love ya
You've given me the victory
How can I describe ya
There aren't enough words I can say
Even in my trials
You're always there to make a way
I will bless your name
Let all heaven and earth proclaim
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awe----some
God (Awesome God)
God (Awesome God)
How can I say thank ya
For all the things you've done for me
How can I say I love ya
You've given me the victory
How can I describe ya
There aren't enough words I can say
Even in my trials
You're always there to make a way
I will bless your name
Let all heaven and earth proclaim
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awesome God
We serve an awe----some
God (Awesome God)
God (Awesome God)
He's a friend to the end
He's an awesome God He's an awesome God
Saved my soul made me whole
He's an awesome God He's an awesome God
(repeat)
He's awesome, He's an awesome God
He's awesome (repeat to the end)

Meaning & Inspiration
“Awesome God” is a direct expression of gratitude for God’s help, victory, and faithful presence in hardship. Its opening questions admit that ordinary words are inadequate to describe divine goodness. Thanksgiving and love lead naturally into blessing God’s name, while the chorus widens that praise into a declaration for heaven and earth: the God being worshiped is awesome. The repeated lines give the song a congregational character, allowing one central confession to remain prominent.
The later section names salvation, restoration, and enduring friendship as reasons for praise. Even trials become part of the testimony because God is described as making a way through them rather than abandoning the singer. This emphasis aligns with biblical calls to bless the Lord for His benefits and to proclaim His glory openly. Victory is not treated as personal achievement; it is received as God’s work. By returning again and again to the same declaration, the song keeps gratitude focused on God’s character and actions, joining personal testimony with shared praise.
