“Here I Am To Worship” is a wonderful gospel song joint sung by Passion Music band and talented American Christian singer and songwriter, Chris Tomlin.
It was released in the year 2002, from the studio album “Passion: Our Love Is Loud (Live).”
“Here I Am to Worship” is an inspiring gospel song by Passion & Chris Tomli, and the whole idea of the song is about a worship and thanksgiving to God almighty.
It’s like a time of devotion, coming before the Lord to celebrate His majesty and to be grateful for all He has done.
The song starts with “Light of the world,” pointing out that in the darkness of this world God provides hope, calmness and direction in our lives.
What it says is that God came to earth and in so doing decided to humility and be with man. This can be attributed to a Christian belief in Jesus Christ’s suffering, the ability to come unto this world to save and restore those who are in it.
The lyrics of the song literally means, Here I am to worship you God with all my heart and voice. It is all about the devotion which means devoting oneself completely to God and recognizing His great glory.
The likes of “You are lovely, you are worthy” are godly ways of saying God is beautiful in all aspects and deserving of a standing ovation as well.
This song also brings the element of humility in line “I’ll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross.”
He loved us while we were still sinners and that is a reminder that tables what Jesus did for us in sacrifice and how much He loves us to this date.
In simple words, this song is prayer of gratitude to God. It is about taking the time out to appreciate His, grace, His love and His presence all through the year.
“Here I am to Worship” encourages us to come closer to God and to remember that He deserves to be worshipped and He is sufficient.
Lyrics;
Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
And here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh, so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love’s sake became poor
And here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
[x4]
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[x2]
I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
[x2]
