Behold Our God
by Sovereign Grace Music
Theology & Meaning
Rich in scriptural allusions, starting with rhetorical questions akin to Isaiah 40:12-14 that highlight God's incomparable wisdom and power. It affirms God as King on His throne and calls Jesus 'the Lamb,' referencing John 1:29 and Revelation 5:13.
Worship Leadership Tips
Often used in moments of deep reverence, this song can follow a sermon on God's greatness or attributes. Consider having a scripture reading just before the song to set the tone.
Arrangement Tips
Start gently, perhaps just piano for the first verse, to draw people into reflection. When you reach the chorus 'Behold our God, seated on His throne,' allow the instrumentation to swell to convey the grandeur.
