Lyrics / गीत
अंतरा १:
कैसे मैं तेरी महिमा गाऊं
शब्द भी कम पड़ जाएं
लिखने बैठूं तेरी बातें
कागज में ना समाएं – २
कोरस:
आश्चर्य तेरे जग में इतने
कैसे मैं इनको बयान करूं – २
तेरी प्रशंसा करूं – २
धन्यवाद कहूं – २
अंतरा २:
किससे करूं मैं तेरी तुलना, कौन है तेरे समान
तूफ़ान भी सुनकर तेरी माने, सागर भी हट जाएं – २
ब्रिज:
मैं लायक नहीं, अर्पण मेरे, कुबूल कर ले
अनुग्रह से मुझको सम्पूर्ण कर दे – २
येशुआ – ४

Stanza 1:
How can I sing of Your glory?
Even words fall short.
If I sit down to write of Your deeds,
The paper would not be enough to contain them – 2
Chorus:
There are so many of Your wonders in this world,
How can I possibly express them all? – 2
I will praise You – 2
I will say thank You – 2

Who can I compare You to, who is equal to You?
Even the storms listen and obey You, even the oceans step aside – 2
Bridge:
I am not worthy, yet please accept my offerings,
By Your grace, make me complete – 2
Yeshua (Jesus) – 4
Spiritual Meaning & Theme
This beautifully penned modern worship song is an expression of awe, acknowledging that human language and capacity are completely insufficient to describe the magnitude of God.
- Uncontainable Glory: The first stanza brilliantly mirrors the final verse of the Gospel of John (John 21:25), which declares that if all the things Jesus did were written down, “even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.” The paper (Kaagaz) and words (Shabd) fall entirely short of capturing His majesty.
- Lord of the Elements: The second stanza asks the rhetorical question found in Isaiah 40:18 (“To whom then will you liken God?”). It immediately answers it by pointing to the miracle in Mark 4:39, reminding us that Jesus is so completely unmatched in power that even the raging storms and oceans instantly obey His voice.
- Grace and Completion: The bridge brings the focus from God’s massive universal power down to deeply personal surrender. The worshiper admits their unworthiness (Main layak nahin), yet boldly asks God to accept their offering and make them whole (Sampoorn) solely through His divine grace (Anugrah).
