[Verse 1]
In the hands of the Potter
Where the clay meets His power
Miracles happen
When I wait here, so l'll wait here
In the house of the Father
I've seen signs and wonders
I know You can do it
If I stay here, so l'll stay here
You make my heart
Come alive again
Come alive again
You make my heart
Come alive again
Come alive again
You're giving me new life
As I surrender
And I hear Your voice
It's calling, it's calling
Up from the ashes
And out the grave
And into the light
I'm running, I'm running
You make my heart
Come alive again
Come alive again
Whoa
You make my heart
Come alive again
Come alive again
Oh I'm alive I'm alive
Oh I'm alive I'm alive
I can breathe again
I can dream again
As You're rushing in
I feel resurrection
I can sing again
I can dance again
I've been born again
The power of Your presence
I can breathe again
I can dream again
As You're rushing in
I feel resurrection
I can sing again
I can dance again
I've been born again
The power of Your presence (Oh)
Yeah
It's my resurrection (Oh)
Into the light now
Into the light now
The power of Your presence (Oh)
Into the light now
Into the light now
It's my resurrection (Oh)
Jesus, Jesus
The power of Your presence
I can breathe again, Jesus
I can dream again
As You're rushing in
I feel resurrection
I can sing again
I can dance again
I've been born again
The power of Your presence
It's my resurrection
Alive Again
Song Meaning
Elevation Worship stacks resurrection language directly on top of ordinary human sensation in "Alive Again" — "I can breathe again, I can dream again... I can sing again, I can dance again." None of these are abstract spiritual claims; they're basic, physical signs of life, which is exactly the point the song keeps returning to. Whatever "alive" means here, it's meant to be felt, not just believed.
"Up from the ashes and out the grave, and into the light, I'm running" ties personal renewal explicitly to the resurrection itself rather than treating them as separate categories of hope. "I've been born again" arrives almost matter-of-factly after the physical list, letting the ordinary details carry the theological weight instead of the other way around.
The repeated "the power of Your presence" keeps the song from crediting the change to willpower or circumstance — every sign of new life named across the song is attributed to something external showing up, not something self-generated.
