Holy God
Brian Doerksen's song 'Holy God' is a worship anthem that exalts the holiness of God. The lyrics repeat the phrase 'Holy, holy, holy God' and describe God as Creator, Redeemer, and Warrior. The song emphasizes God's transcendence, His work of forgiveness and salvation through the Lamb, and His pursuit of hearts to restore and transform lives. It draws on imagery from Scripture, such as the Lion of Judah, and calls listeners to recognize God's holy nature. The song is a declaration of praise and adoration, focusing on who God is rather than on human experience.
