David Phelps' song 'Virtuoso' is a worshipful reflection on God as the master artist and composer of life. The lyrics compare human existence to a symphony, with God as the virtuoso who breathes life into dust and creates beauty. The song emphasizes that every aspect of creation, from thunder to the wind, reflects God's handiwork. It expresses surrender, acknowledging that our hearts are instruments and our lives are songs composed by God. The theme centers on God's perfection and the idea that human creativity is merely an imitation of His divine artistry.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

A handful of dust a worthless piece of clay

And you breathed the breath of heaven

Then there was a soul

The heart, the hands, the voice that could sing of your perfection

Life is a symphony that only you can play

You know I can hear it through the madness everyday


Virtuoso, virtuoso

This heart is your instrument

This life is your song

Virtuoso

There isn't a note of mediocrity

In all of your creation and all the beauty

We create with human hands is only imitation

Thunder crashes, waves crescendo on the sand

The wind that's whispering can only be your hand


Virtuoso, virtuoso

This heart is your instrument

This life is your song

Virtuoso


A timeless melody of beauty and emotion

Perfect harmony inspiring true devotion

No one else can play its chords so graceful yet so strong

You made the instrument and wrote the song

Virtuoso


Virtuoso, virtuoso

This heart is your instrument

This life is your song

Virtuoso
