[Verse 1]
Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes and let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Verse 2]
King of all days, oh so highly exalted
You're glorious in heaven above, yes You are
Humbly You came to this Earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Verse 3]
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin up on that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin up on that cross
[Bridge]
Here I am, here I am to worship You
Here I am to worship You
Help me sing
Here I am to worship You
Here I am to worship You
Here I am, here I am
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Outro]
Wonderful to me, You're wonderful to me
You're lovely and You are worthy
Say, say wonderful, wonderful
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes and let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Verse 2]
King of all days, oh so highly exalted
You're glorious in heaven above, yes You are
Humbly You came to this Earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Verse 3]
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin up on that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin up on that cross
[Bridge]
Here I am, here I am to worship You
Here I am to worship You
Help me sing
Here I am to worship You
Here I am to worship You
Here I am, here I am
[Chorus]
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
Altogether lovely, altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
[Outro]
Wonderful to me, You're wonderful to me
You're lovely and You are worthy
Say, say wonderful, wonderful
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
Here I am to worship
💡 Song Meaning & Background
"Here I Am to Worship" by Hillsong Worship is a Christian worship song that conveys a sense of surrender and devotion to God. The song's lyrics, written by Tim Hughes, express a willingness to give oneself completely to God, drawing from biblical themes of worship and surrender, as seen in Isaiah 6:1-5, where the prophet Isaiah responds to God's presence with a declaration of his readiness to serve. This powerful anthem has been a staple in Christian worship services worldwide, inspiring believers to offer themselves as living sacrifices to God.
