Create in me
A heart that is clean
'Cause I want to be
Who You want me to be
The depths of my soul
Are Yours Lord to mould
'Cause I want to be
Who You want me to be
Holy Spirit fill me, overwhelm me
Holy Spirit use me, for Your glory
Here's my life
Let it be a living sacrifice
All that I am
Surrender it to Your hands
I surrender
No matter where
No matter when
Lord, I will go
Where You want me to go
Holy Spirit fill me, overwhelm me
Holy Spirit use me, for Your glory
Here's my life
Let it be a living sacrifice
All that I am
Surrender it to Your hands
I surrender
Here I am
Jesus, let Your will be done in me
All that I am
Surrender it to Your hands
I surrender
I give it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
You have it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
I give it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
You have it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
Here's my life
Let it be a living sacrifice
All that I am
Surrender it to Your hands
I surrender
Here I am
Jesus, let Your will be done in me
All that I am
Surrender it to Your hands
I surrender
I give it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
You have it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
I give it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
You have it all, my heart and soul
Jesus, I'm living for You
The song "Here's My Life (Live In Melbourne)" by PlanetShakers is a powerful anthem of surrender and devotion to God. It calls us to offer our lives as a living sacrifice, completely surrendering ourselves to His will and purpose. The lyrics speak of a deep desire to be molded by God, to be used by Him for His glory.
The song begins with the plea, "Create in me, a heart that is clean, 'Cause I want to be who You want me to be." This echoes the words of David in Psalm 51:10, where he asks God to create in him a clean heart and renew a right spirit within him. It is an acknowledgment that we cannot transform ourselves, but we need God to work in us and change us from the inside out.
As the song progresses, it expresses a willingness to go wherever God leads, saying, "No matter where, no matter when, Lord, I will go where You want me to go." This echoes the words of Isaiah in Isaiah 6:8, where he responds to God's call by saying, "Here am I, send me." It is a declaration of surrender and availability to be used by God for His purposes.
The chorus of the song declares, "Here's my life, let it be a living sacrifice, all that I am, surrender it to Your hands, I surrender." This is reminiscent of Romans 12:1, where Paul urges believers to offer their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. It is a call to lay down our own desires and ambitions and submit ourselves completely to God's will.
The bridge of the song proclaims, "I give it all, my heart and soul, Jesus, I'm living for You." This reflects the words of Paul in Galatians 2:20, where he declares, "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." It is a reminder that as Christians, our lives are no longer our own, but belong to Jesus.
The song "Here's My Life (Live In Melbourne)" is a powerful declaration of surrender and devotion to God. It reminds us of the importance of offering our lives as a living sacrifice to Him, allowing Him to mold and shape us according to His will. It calls us to lay down our own desires and ambitions and submit ourselves completely to God's plans and purposes. May this song inspire us to live wholeheartedly for Jesus and surrender every aspect of our lives to Him.
