My Jesus, My Saviour – Shout to the Lord
“My Jesus, My Saviour – Shout to the Lord” is not a psalm but a contemporary Christian worship song. Here is a brief account of its background:
Origin and Author: The song was written by Darlene Zschech. It emerged in the contemporary Christian music scene, which has been growing and evolving since the mid-20th century. Zschech was part of the Hillsong Church in Australia and was inspired within the context of the church’s vibrant worship culture.
Inspirational Context: It was created to express the personal and collective faith of believers in Jesus as their savior. The song aims to encourage worshipers to declare their love and devotion to Jesus, acknowledging Him as the central figure of their faith. It reflects the modern Christian’s desire to praise and worship God in a contemporary and engaging way, while also drawing on the timeless themes of faith, salvation, and God’s power and love that are found in the Bible.
English Lyrics
My Jesus, my Saviour
Lord, there is none like You
All of my days, I want to praise
The wonders of Your mighty love
My comfort, my shelter
Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath, all that I am
Never cease to worship You
Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the King!
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name!
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You
My Jesus, my Saviour
Lord, there is none like You
All of my days, I want to praise
The wonders of Your mighty love
My comfort, my shelter
Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath, all that I am
Never cease to worship You
Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the King!
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name!
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You
Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the King!
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name!
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have
Nothing compares to the promise I have
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You
