Jireh
by Elevation Worship & Maverick City Music
Theology & Meaning
Named after 'Jehovah Jireh' (Genesis 22:14), this song's theology centers on God's faithful provision. It echoes Jesus' teaching in Matthew 6:25-34 - we need not worry because our Father knows our needs. The lyrics also emphasize our identity ('I'm already loved, I'm already chosen').
Worship Leadership Tips
Works well in a set when teaching on trust or following personal sharing about God's provision. It's a mid-tempo song with a contemplative groove - allow space for the words to sink in.
Arrangement Tips
If you have multiple worship leaders, this is a great song to trade verses (as the original features male and female leads) to model unity and inclusivity. End by gently reiterating 'You are enough.'
