Song Meaning
Tasha Cobbs Leonard quotes Philippians 2:10 and 2:11 directly and repeatedly as the song's entire content: "every knee shall bow, every tongue confess, He is Lord." Paul's own hymn about Christ's exaltation after his humiliation and death supplies the song with no need for additional verses.
The shift midway from "He is Lord" to "You are Lord" moves the declaration from description to direct address, the same confession turned into worship rather than only doctrine. "All glory to Your name, Jesus" closes the song by naming exactly who the repeated title belongs to, in case the chorus's near-total repetition left any ambiguity.
