Meaning & Inspiration
“Be Lifted High (Live)” features Fearless Community and Tim Godfrey with Anderson and Ohgey. The chorus is a short prayer, “Be lifted high, oh Jesus, be lifted high.” The verse says that every other god is the work of men, while Jesus is the only God, and the refrain adds that every knee must bow and every tongue will confess.
The bridge turns to a picture of heaven: heaven and earth adore Him, angels bow before Him, and the singers lay down their crowns and worship. The vamp repeats those lines several times, so the song becomes a sustained scene of worship. Later rounds return to the verse and the refrain until the recording ends.
The lines are close to Isaiah 45:23, Philippians 2:10-11 and Revelation 4:10-11, on every knee bowing, every tongue confessing and the elders laying their crowns before the throne. The song is bold, repeated and made for a large gathering, with the live setting adding the voices of the crowd.
