Lyrics

I'll say yes, Lord, yes


To Your will and to Your way


I'll say yes, Lord, yes


I will trust You and obey


When Your spirit speaks to me


With my whole heart I'll agree


And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes 


Lord, I give You all the glory


For what You've done for me 


You fill my life until I overflow


All I have is Yours to use


Anyway You choose


You're the Lord of lords, so how can I say no? 


I'll say yes, Lord, yes


To Your will and to Your way


I'll say yes, Lord, yes


I will trust You and obey


When Your Spirit speaks to me


With my whole heart I'll agree


And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes 


If I never knew the fullness 


If living in Your will 


I'd never know how rich my life would be 


So if my willingness to serve is the least that You deserve 


For the blessing You've showered all over me 


I'll say yes, Lord, yes


To Your will and to Your way


I'll say yes, Lord, yes


I will trust You and obey


When Your Spirit speaks to me


With my whole heart I'll agree


And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes 


When Your spirit 


When Your Spirit 


... 


When Your Spirit speaks to me


With my whole heart I'll agree


And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes

Meaning & Inspiration

“Yes Lord Yes” centers on surrender as a willing response to God. Its repeated promise to accept the Lord’s will and way joins trust with obedience, while the verses frame service as gratitude for divine care. Rather than presenting submission as reluctant duty, the song describes a whole-hearted agreement that gives God both glory and practical control over a life. The overflowing blessings named in the lyrics become the reason for offering every possession and ability back to the Lord.

The refrain closely reflects the posture of Jesus in Luke 22:42, where personal desire yields to the Father’s will. Romans 12:1 also provides a fitting connection because the singer offers an entire life for God’s use. The result is worship shaped by trust: God speaks, the faithful heart agrees, and obedience becomes the answer. Even the closing repetition keeps attention on the decisive response, “yes, Lord, yes,” making surrender the song’s central confession.
