Story behind the song
"Who Is Like The Lord" is an evocative worship song that beautifully captures the journey of faith and devotion. The song opens with John singing about the harshness of life's trials, metaphorically described as waves of heat across a desert floor, and the need for spiritual sustenance. The imagery of drawing water from a well symbolizes the refreshing and life-giving nature of God's presence. In the second verse, John reflects on the redemptive path offered by Jesus, portraying Him as the way to eternal life and the Father. This sets the stage for the powerful chorus, which calls for God's Kingdom to come and reign in the hearts of believers, bringing peace and undoing evil. Richard takes over in the third verse, leading a moment of reverent worship before God's throne. He emphasizes the majesty and safety found in God's name, inviting listeners to recognize and hail the Lord's unmatched greatness. The bridge continues this theme, calling for the Holy Spirit to transform and purify the faithful. The song concludes with a heartfelt spoken word by Morgan, expressing total surrender to God and recognizing His supreme worthiness of all praise. The combination of reflective verses, an uplifting chorus, and a powerful spoken word creates a moving and immersive worship experience.

Lyrics
Who Is Like The Lord VERSE 1 (John) Waves of heat across this desert floor, It makes me think, can I take one step more. Draw me some water from inside your well, Living Spring Your story to tell. VERSE 2 (John) There is a road clear before us, My own way left me in the dust. Eternal life is through Jesus the Son, The Way to the Father weve just begun. CHORUS: We await Your Kingdom, Lord. Govern our hearts; undo the evil works in us. Bring Your peace and dwell among us, Lord. We can't wait for Your warm embrace. VERSE 3 (Richard) We bow before Your throne as we sing Your praise. You are forever enthroned; our safety lies in Your name. Who is like the Lord? Come, let us hail His name. Mighty is the Lord; amazing is His sight. *Chorus 2x* Bridge (Richard) All glory to You, Father, seated above, On Your throne. Pour Your Spirit on Your servants; transform us, Make us pure. *Chorus 2x* Spoken Word (Morgan) Lord, we are here to give You glory. You are our Father; we are Your children. Take it all, Lord; only You are worthy. King of kings, take our praise. Copyright 2024 John Matteson, Morgan Johnstone and Richard Shekari.
