Put Your Hands Up
Song Meaning
Planetshakers keep this one's testimony simple and personal — "for when You looked at me and turned my life around, now in You I am found" — before the chorus turns that gratitude outward into a corporate response: "everybody give Him glory." The phrase reaches for Revelation 4:11's declaration, "worthy are you, our Lord and God... for you created all things."
"If you love Him don't stop praise Him" keeps the song's whole logic tied to a specific cause rather than generic enthusiasm — love as the reason for the response, not the other way around. "Now in You I am found" plays on the language of Luke 15:24, the lost son who "was lost, and is found" — the hands-raised gesture treated less as performance and more as the natural response to having actually been located after being lost.
I gotta let You know
That I'm so thankful
For everything You have done
For when You looked at me
And turned my life around
Now in You I am found
So put your hands up
Everybody give Him glory
Hands up
Everybody shout your praise aloud
And sing with everything
Give Him all the glory, for our God is worthy
I gotta let You know
That I'm so thankful
For everything You have done
For when You looked at me
And turned my life around
Now in You I am found
So put your hands up
Everybody give Him glory
Hands up
Everybody shout your praise aloud
And sing with everything
Give Him all the glory, for our God is worthy
Everybody shout your praise aloud
And sing with everything
Give Him all the glory, for our God is worthy
If you love Him don't stop praise Him put your hands up
If you love Him don't stop praise Him put your hands up
Everybody give Him glory put your hands up
Put your hands up, put your hands up [x4]
