Meaning & Inspiration
“What a God” by SEU Worship is a song of wonder at a God who is better than expected. The opening verse asks who thought He would be found at the lowest place or felt in the crowd, and adds that He is “nothing like I thought You were.” The next verse asks “what kind of God looks for the lost,” and answers the claim that a sinner is finished with His words, “No it’s not.” That is close to Luke 19:10.
The bridge is a confession of contentment: if the highest place reached is at His feet and the best thing seen is His glory, then the singer has “done it all” and “seen it all.” The line “if I feel Your heart and never see Your hand, I still have it all” echoes Habakkuk 3:17-18 and Psalm 73:25.
The long outro repeats “You are my everything.” The message is satisfaction in God’s love, whatever circumstances may bring.
