Great Is the Lord Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

"Great Is The Lord" by Tonya Baker, featuring Corey Barksdale, is a powerful and uplifting gospel anthem released on March 8, 2018, accompanied by a song video. The song immediately establishes its central theme through its title and opening lines, declaring the supreme nature of God. The lyrics build upon this foundation by attributing various aspects of God's character and actions to His inherent greatness. Across several verses, the song repeatedly emphasizes God's roles in the life of the believer, portraying Him first as a Conqueror who has never failed and delivers through trials and tribulations. This is followed by a portrayal of God as a Comforter who never leaves, highlighting the biblical assurance that the righteous are not forsaken. The third verse then shifts to depict God as a Warrior who has never lost a battle, raising a standard against the enemy's onslaught, underscoring His protective and victorious nature.

The structure of the verses, with their slight variations and echoed lines, creates a strong, resonant affirmation of faith. The repetition is not merely redundant but serves to reinforce the declarations, allowing the listener to internalize these truths about God's character. The song's chorus serves as a powerful, communal declaration, extending the concept of God's greatness from specific roles to His overall being and presence in daily life. Lines like "Everyday I wake up, I think Great is the Lord" and "New mercies every morning" connect this theological truth to personal, ongoing experience, highlighting God's consistent goodness and faithfulness. The chorus expands further, acknowledging God's protection from both seen and unseen dangers and even from negative influences in one's life, making the praise deeply personal and applicable.

The bridge introduces a compelling phrase, "He's just too good to just be good," which beautifully captures the exceeding abundance of God's blessings and actions. This idea is further elaborated upon with ad-libs that speak to specific manifestations of His goodness, such as supplying every need, opening doors, and making ways out of impossible situations. This section transforms the general declaration of "greatness" into tangible examples of God's active involvement in the lives of believers, making the praise specific and heartfelt. The repeated affirmation in the bridge, often accompanied by vocal ad-libs, builds intensity and emphasizes the depth of God's benevolence and power.

Throughout the song, the pervasive repetition of the phrase "Great is the Lord" in the chorus and bridge acts as a central anchor, creating a meditative and declarative atmosphere. This repetition is characteristic of gospel music, serving to drive home the message and facilitate corporate worship. The post-chorus offers a brief, intimate reflection on the personal joy and security found in God's love, describing it as a "guarantee in a world of changes" and affirming God as the "Truth and the Light." The outro, unique in its direct address to the audience, seems to gauge the listener's desire for depth in the album, suggesting that the song itself is an entry point into profound spiritual reflection and experience. Overall, "Great Is The Lord" is an inspirational piece that combines theological declaration with personal testimony, inviting listeners to join in proclaiming the unfailing, all-encompassing greatness of God based on His historical faithfulness and ongoing presence.
