It's All About Jesus

A single phrase organizes the verses of this Planetshakers song, "It's all about Jesus," and each repetition finishes with a different reason. The first stanza reads like a creed in miniature: "the way he changed our lives," "the power of his blood can't be denied," "the covenant he made," and "victorious he rose up from the grave."

The second stanza returns to the cross, with the phrases "set us free," "bearing all our sins at Calvary," "the gift of love he gave," and "the precious lamb of God was slain." These line up with Hebrews 9:14 on the blood, 1 Peter 2:24 on bearing sins, and John 3:16 on the gift of love.

The chorus changes the grammar from statement to response: "We lift our hearts to him, he is the reason that we sing," followed by a long run of "Hallelujah... we praise your name." Revelation 5:12's worthy-Lamb scene stands behind it, and the song closes with that chorus repeated until the praise takes over from the argument.
