Glorious
Hillsong United's 'Glorious Ruins' is a worship song that celebrates God's enduring love and majesty. The lyrics express praise for God's love that surpasses life itself and find satisfaction in His name. The chorus declares God as the singer's song and love, acknowledging His holiness and presence. The song also references the truth of Galatians 2:20, stating that it is no longer the singer who lives but Christ living in them. This theme of surrender and identity in Christ is central, as the singer affirms being planted in God and singing forevermore. The song builds to a declaration of making God's praises glorious, with all creation joining in.
Your love endures forever
Reaches beyond the heavens
I will praise, I will praise
Your love is better than life
Your name alone satisfies
I will sing, I will sing
Chorus:
You are my God; You are my song
You are my love; I am found in You
Your holiness, Your majesty
Your presence fills my life
And the earth will shake, the skies light up
They join with us
Live to make Your praises glorious, glorious
No longer I who live it
It's Christ who lives in me
I am Yours, I am Yours
I'm planted deep within You
My heart and soul will sing
Forevermore, forevermore
(Chorus)
