My Soul Sings
Song Meaning
Creation comes first here: “From the void / Your words rang forth,” the earth is formed and life is born, in the manner of God speaking light into being in Genesis 1:3. The second verse moves straight to rupture, admitting that God knew sin would “tear us apart” and “break Your heart,” and that He would redeem anyway.
The chorus is the song’s reply, a soul that “sings / For my eyes see / Your beauty on display” and then sings again, “responding / To the wonder of Your love / At work inside of me.” The third verse names the cost plainly: “We were powerless / But You died for us.” A cup is drunk, and the verdict is “It was enough, it’s still enough.”
A bridge widens the portrait to “Infinite God, intimate friend,” whose love “endures, it never ends.” The movement from the void to a singing heart lines up with Psalm 19:1, where creation declares the glory of God, and with Romans 5:8, Christ dying for us while we were still sinners.
From the void
Your words rang forth
The earth was formed
And life was born
[Verse 2]
Even then You knew our sin
Would tear us apart
We would break Your heart
But You would redeem
[Chorus]
Now my soul sings
For my eyes see
Your beauty on display
For all of the world to see
Now my soul sings
Responding
To the wonder of Your love
At work inside of me
[Verse 3]
We were powerless
But You died for us
To show Your love
Your perfect love
Unsatisfied
Till we drank Your cup
It was enough, it's still enough
You're all we need
[Chorus]
Now my soul sings
For my eyes see
Your beauty on display
For all the world to see
Now my soul sings
Responding
To the wonder of Your love
At work inside of me
[Bridge]
Infinite God, intimate friend
Your love endures, it never ends
Then sings my soul
My soul must sing of all You are to me
[Chorus]
Now my soul sings
For my eyes see
Your beauty on display
For all the world to see
Now my soul sings
Responding
To the wonder of Your love
At work inside of me
My soul sings
