Lyrics
\[Verse 1\] Here I stand before Your throne With a heart that longs to go To the places You have called So the whole wide world may know You are leading every step You have cleared the open way Giving courage to our hearts As we follow You today \[Chorus\] So we go to every heart In every nation, town, and land To proclaim Your endless grace And the wonder of Your hand In the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost We are walking in Your light We surrender all we are Standing precious in Your sight \[Verse 2\] Down beside the quiet stream Leaving all our sins behind Rising up to live again In a mercy sweet and kind Learning how to walk Your way Keeping every word You speak Finding strength in You alone Giving hope unto the weak \[Chorus\] So we go to every heart In every nation, town, and land To proclaim Your endless grace And the wonder of Your hand In the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost We are walking in Your light We surrender all we are Standing precious in Your sight \[Bridge\] All the power in heaven above All authority on earth Belongs to Jesus, Christ the Lord Who has shown us what we're worth And You promise You are here With us to the very end Our Redeemer, King of Kings Our Savior and our Friend \[Verse 3\] Open up your heart right now Listen to His gentle voice He is standing at your door Calling you to make a choice Put your faith in Jesus Christ Yield your spirit to His grace Accept Him as your Lord today Come and seek His holy face \[Chorus\] So we go to every heart In every nation, town, and land To proclaim Your endless grace And the wonder of Your hand In the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost We are walking in Your light We surrender all we are Standing precious in Your sight \[Outro\] Jesus is the Lord Savior of my soul We yield our lives to You To make the broken whole \[Gentle acoustic guitar and piano fade out\]
Study notes
Key Elements of the Verse • The Command ("Go and make disciples"): Believers are instructed to actively reach out beyond their local communities to invite all people—regardless of ethnicity or culture—into a life of following Jesus. • The Scope ("All nations"): The mission extends globally to every people group rather than being restricted to a single nation or group. • The Sign of Commitment ("Baptizing them"): New disciples are baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, publicly marking their faith, transformation, and inclusion in the family of God. • The Trinitarian Formula ("Father, Son, and Holy Spirit"): The verse explicitly highlights the three persons of the Christian Trinity. This verse acts as the foundational mission statement for the Christian church, paired closely with verse 20's instruction to teach obedience and the promise of Christ's continual presence.
