Steve Crown - You Are Yahweh Lyrics

“You Are Yahweh” by Steve Crown is a short worship chant that names God by His covenant name. The opening lines call Him the God who was, who is and who is to come, and the singer says that in Him he trusts and that his life is in His hands. Jesus is named as the miracle-working God.

The chorus is the title line, sung again and again with extended vowels: “You are Yahweh.” The singer adds the titles Alpha and Omega, and the lines return to the same declaration until the song ends. There is little narrative, so the lyric works as adoration rather than story.

The words are close to Revelation 1:8, where the Lord God is the Alpha and Omega, the One who is and who was and who is to come. The name Yahweh recalls Exodus 3:14, and the trust in God’s hands is close to Psalm 31:15. The song is simple, repetitive and suited to a congregation worshipping together.
