"Is He Worthy / Agnus Dei / We Fall Down" is a powerful song by Maverick City Music that combines three different songs into one beautiful worship experience. The song is a collaboration between various talented artists, including Chandler Moore and Nate Moore. It starts with the question, "Is anyone worthy?" and ends with the declaration that Jesus is indeed worthy of all blessing, honor, and glory.
The song begins by acknowledging the brokenness and darkness in the world. It acknowledges that we all long to see everything made new and creation itself groans for a new beginning. This theme is rooted in the Scriptures, particularly in Romans 8:19-21, which speaks of creation eagerly waiting for the revealing of the sons of God and being set free from its bondage to corruption. The song captures the tension between the current brokenness and the hope of a new creation.
The lyrics then shift to the question of God's love for us and His intention to dwell with us once again. It echoes the truth of Scripture that God loves us and desires to be in relationship with us. It reflects the promise of Revelation 21:3 that one day, God will dwell among His people, wiping away every tear and making all things new. This promise gives us hope and reassurance that God is faithful and His love for us is unwavering.
The chorus poses the question, "Is anyone worthy?" and answers with a resounding affirmation that Jesus is indeed worthy. This idea is rooted in Revelation 5:4-5, where John sees a scroll in the right hand of the one seated on the throne, and no one in heaven or on earth is found worthy to open it, except the Lion of Judah, the Lamb who was slain. Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross has made Him the only one worthy to redeem and ransom humanity.
The song then transitions into the chorus of "Agnus Dei," which means "Lamb of God" in Latin. This is a reference to Jesus as the Lamb who takes away the sins of the world, as described in John 1:29. The repetition of "holy, holy, holy" in this section reflects the worship and adoration that is due to Jesus, the holy Lamb of God.
Finally, the song concludes with the chorus of "We Fall Down." This chorus acknowledges our response to Jesus' worthiness. We humble ourselves and lay our crowns at the feet of Jesus, recognizing His greatness, mercy, and love. This echoes the sentiment of Philippians 2:10-11, which states that every knee should bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
"Is He Worthy / Agnus Dei / We Fall Down" is a powerful worship anthem that beautifully encapsulates the themes of Jesus' worthiness, His sacrificial death, and our response of worship and surrender. It draws on Scripture to convey the truth of God's love for us and His plan to restore all things. The song invites us to join in the worship of Jesus, acknowledging His worthiness and surrendering ourselves to Him. It is a song that can lead us into a deeper encounter with God and a greater appreciation for the work of Christ on the cross.
