This core wording of this song is taken from Revelation 5:1-14 where John the Revelator saw in a vision the Ancient One (God) seated on the throne with a scroll sealed with seven seals. The scroll is written about the fate of the God's people in the end times. When asked if there is anyone able to open the scroll, no one on earth, in heaven or under the earth is worthy to open it. John wept bitterly. But then he was told that the Lion of Judah, the Root of David (Jesus Christ) will open it with His blood to bring blessing, honor, and glory to all of us. He is WORTHY! My tears came when this verse is sung. Amen halleluyah.
I'm latin women , I don't know a lot of English but when I heard this song something happened in my heart and I just start to worship to God ! Now I know the lirycs And I understand why I felt that in my 💓 He is Worthy! Santo y Digno! A El la gloria y honra siempre !! (Sorry about my English)
Yes except Jesus is not bringing blessing and honor and glory to us, but the whole point is that HE is worthy of all the glory and honor and blessing. To Him be all the glory. Blessings to you in Christ.
Andrew, I’m a Deaf woman, who spends much time in prayer, and “listening” to Utube music. I love this precious song , and have included many people in my circle. All.. have been very deeply blessed. The crescendo of presentation, the beautiful church, and the powerful lyrics/ music serve to completely draw me into praise and thanksgiving, unto our Lord, Lion of Judah. My fingers and hands sign this, with every ounce of my heart. Thank you, bless you, and sharing your gifts truly blesses others🌹 in Jesus, forever…♥️♥️♥️
This is such a beautiful comment. I have been in bed all day long crying. Bawling my eyes out. I have dealt with Major Depressive Disorder for most of my adult life, and after being in remission for several years, it's back. With a vengeance. A vengeance so strong that I KNOW I'm under spiritual attack. I have listened to this song on repeat for most of the day today. The devil is trying his hardest to get me down so low that I am completely CONSUMED with depression. If he can get me down to that point, I won't be able to offer up one word of praise to my LORD JESUS CHRIST. Well, GUESS WHAT, DEVIL???? I'M NOT GOING THERE! PRAISE GOD! Thank You Lord God for delivering me from this pit of hell on earth that I've been burning in today, and for the past 3 months!!!! I praise Your Holy Name!!! I thank You for my salvation! I thank You for my family and my friends. I thank You for each and every thing that You have blessed me with! Thank You God for being who You are! I praise Your Holy Name today and EVERY DAY. I love You, Lord. I feel as if I am being rocked in a rocking chair, while being cradled in the arms of Jesus. I feel such a sense of peace at this very moment in time. I can feel his arms around me. I am at peace now. Thank You Jesus for leaving me with The Holy Spirit, who has dwelled inside of me since the very second I accepted You as my Lord And Savior. The Comfortor has shown up for me in such a beautiful and mighty way since I began typing this reply. I could barely type when I first began. Now, I feel, I LITTERALLY FEEL the presence of God in this room with me. PRAISE YOUR NAME. YOU ARE WORTHY!
@kathyumberger3358 You are His, and it shines through. I don't even know you but I can tell the Holy Spirit moves through you and you seek His face, and it is so lovely to know. God bless you and may His face shine upon you always. Get thee behind her, Satan!
I am 12 years old and in tears at 1:06 am . God is almighty he will always be there and I am so thankful for that. When no one cared he did . He helped me through a lot. Please pray for me god bless you all
What a blessing to read of you at 12 years, being so moved by God. I pray that your love for Him and your understanding of His Word will continue all your life. As for Hillsong songs, many are exceptionally beautiful; but please be careful. Hillsong, as a church is not following God's word. God bless you, little brother. ella
What is wrong with you? I saw your other comment on Chris Tomlin's version from the exact same account talking about how you lost your beautiful infant daughter, are you trying to farm likes for your comment? Does it make you happy to manipulate people?

I just heard this on the Christian radio station last night and I was so quickened in my spirit that I pulled into a parking lot and turned off the lights in my car and sat in my car in the dark and sobbed and sobbed as the spirit moved in and through me and I had my most interactive experience as the NEW moved over me and washed me as the river in Ezekiel rose from my ankles to my knees and then overflowed the banks of the river to this dimension. Truly a spirit- birthed intervention of LOVE. We are being birthed from the womb of love and that being BORN AGAIN and I’m 68 so you know I am fresh in-joy!! Thank you......

I loved this song God bless you ! Keep singing for the LORD and keep shining the light of Jesus ! Today was my first day hearing it my church sung by the adults and children choir. Thank you !
As wonderful as that truth is, listen to me... there is something even more amazing...! He dwells WITHIN us.... NOW! My brothers and sisters, let the truth of the Indwelling change your life today! Scriptures: bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Indwelling-Of-The-Holy-Spirit
joncaju yes that’s exactly what happened I wasn’t even listening to this song but it was an ad before a RUclips video and it caught my attention that it was so beautiful and I didn’t even realize it was a Christian song. I started to listen to it carefully and I realized it was and I had to hear more about the words and it was really awesome. I let my husband hear it as well and we were both in tears being washed by the Holy Spirit as we worshipped Him
I love this song. I sent this to my sister in hospital as I thought it might encourage her. She replied to say she loved it and it was one of her favorite songs. shortly after I shared this song with her she passed away. I know it brought her much comfort and I it's bringing me comfort too.
James, I’m so sad for your loss but so inspired that your dear sister is singing this in the very presence of the Lord. I hope that brings you deep peace and joy every time you hear this beautiful song. ❤️🙏🕊✝️
Vintage Red Rose True. I usually hold it together until Andrew Peterson gets to the part about Jesus holding us in His arms. That’s when the tears start to flow and the realization of His love for us becomes real.
The first time I heard this was Chris Tomlin's version and it came on while feeding the horses in the barn. There was something different about it and it broke me to the core. All cares faded and I stood in His prescence. God has used you in a mighty way with this worship. I can see all of us singing THIS chorus around the throne together soon.
I guess I never noticed the race of the singers. It felt as if all of heaven was singing this. We moved to an area that is full of every race, culture, religion. We are playing pickleball with, as of today, 10 different nationalities! We are loving and enjoying learning new cultures. I love and embrace our differences, and our sameness. Brothers and sisters in Christ, united in Spirit. Our spirits are wonderfully, mercifully without color. I can't wait for the beautifully diverse heaven where we celebrate each other and no longer see the differences of our family.
This is probably one of the most beautiful, spirit-filled pieces of music I’ve ever listened to. I cannot listen to this without tears and a heart of worship and reverence.
I was married 13 years ago today in this beautiful church; divorced nearly 5 months ago. I see our wedding as I watch this video and it breaks me. The words break me even more, but with hope.
I have been listening to and singing along with this all week. I lost a brother in Christ and a sister in Christ to the grave this week, and I can still tell you “Is He worthy? HE IS!!”
“Does our God intend to dwell again with us?” “HE DOES!!!” What a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness. Hallelujah! Praise be to the Lion and the Lamb🙏🏽❤️
I don't know if I've ever heard of Andrew Peterson. I just saw him on a Christian kids show on Minno. Out of curiosity I looked him up which brought me to this beautiful song. Very grateful.
Thanks AP. You may never know how many you've blessed with this. From the Birmingham City Jail to a retirement center to a small group of Christians on a Sunday night ... the answer to your question, Is He Worthy, comes ringing/echoing back to you HE IS! May the Glory of the Lord shine into every heart that experiences this video. Grace be with us all.
How many indeed! Recent 2024 Shepherds Conference with over 5000 physically present, how many churches watching by livestream, how many watching the recording and sharing on all the social media platforms ... six years later. Another commenter, "When you use God's word to write a song, this is what you get." Amen! May this Christ-focused song CONTINUE to bear much fruit until He returns!
Before my precious husband of almost 53 years left to be with Jesus, he (and I sometimes) sang this song at our nursing home ministry. After he left, I tried but it was incredibly hard to do. It is so beautiful and yes, the Father really does love us.
The world is hopeless without Christ many times I have felt ...this lack of hope because of the sad state of humans due to our sinful nature ...how we have lost respect for God for one another for his beautiful creation and yet he reminds us. He has made all things new ..this suffering will come to pass and we will all confess he is Worthy ...give us living hope Lord .. as this world decays ...in sin let your light shine in the darkness
I never hear this song without feeling my heart move from despair to victory in the breadth of moments. "Is it good that we remind ourselves of this. It is."
Yes. I sometimes feel despair over family members who do not know Jesus of Nazareth. But then I remember that I did not know Him a year ago. And I am an old man. He flung back the curtains and opened my eyes to His Word! Jesus of Nazareth is our only hope! Please pray for Lloyd and Fern. They are 95 and 93, respectively. They are religious, but they do not know our Lord.
A beautiful, well-composed and worshipful song that exalts the Lord. It makes me pause to worship Jesus every time I hear it! It is becoming a classic hymn for the church.
Beyond awesome that a modern worship song taking words straight from the scriptures and the joy I have unpacking every line and finding it to be theologically sound is amazing Thank you!
I just heard this song for the first time, then I replayed it 5 times both to catch each word and to experience the power of it... What an extraordinarily necessary and powerful message for people today! I've got to share this.
A very good friend told me yesterday about Andrew. Thank you Lord Jesus for this, I have long since become a snob when it comes to Christian music because I feel a lot of it is done just to make a buck. To me, it's so clear Andrew just simply wants to praise our Lord God and our savior Jesus Christ. Again, thank you heavenly Father for this.
@@elainelight9286 @gregorall9779 This may shed some light... As an example, John Rutter is largely known for his compositions of Christmas carols and religious pieces (his "Candlelight Carol" is one of my favorites), but he does not himself identify as Christian or even religious. Read more here: The gifts that God gives us are without repentance (Romans 11:29). They're ours to keep, and He won't take them back even if our misuse of them brings Him no glory whatsoever, or worse yet smears His Name. So, unfortunately, heretical churches can retain and utilize their ability to make beautiful music. The prayer is that they quickly and truly repent, allowing God to deal with their heresy. Hope this makes sense.
This song has always given me goosebumps. In a world filled with me-centered worship, this song was so beautiful and has brought me to tears so many times. This is so beautiful and shows the tenderness of our LORD. Thank you!
With all that’s happening in our world and in our country, it’s hard to argue that the world isn’t broken and that the shadows aren’t deepening. What we need now is our Lord, the One who is worthy, to show His power and to glorify His name.
@@MegaDoug First time seeing the video, (I actually thought Chris Tomlin sang this originally) And when I heard the drum and seen what they used on set, I was like "nope, that drum doesn't make that sound" lol
There had to be at least 1 cut when it blacks out by the piano because I don’t think there would have been enough time to get the stringed instruments set up in that area
What a wonderfully powerful song for such a time as this. Our world, especially the United States of America needs to fall to their knees. If this song does not touch their heart and bend their knee, then I don’t know what will.What a wonderful version of this song Mr. Peterson! God Bless You!
I've seen/heard other versions of Is He Worthy, but it usually IS best to hear a song from the songwriter himself! We all need to share Andrew Peterson's original, SO perfect for the times...God bless you🛐👐💖
This is a rare gem of a Christian song! It touches the Holy Spirit within me and brings me to tears of praise. Beautiful worship song that I pray will touch thousands upon thousands of more souls!
What is it about AP's songs that just totally uplift your soul & usher you into the presence of God. Thank you Andrew for again reminding us that it's all about Him & no matter how hard our lives are, it's all gonna be beautiful some day....
There are some songs that are so beautifully timeless... this is one. How could it not be though when the Worthy One transcends time? Such a stirring, deeply scriptural song. I think the Spirit really spoke through Andrew when he wrote it. No less potent in 2024 as it was some years back...
I’ve heard Andrew Peterson’s version of his song at least a hundred times. This song touches the deepest parts of my heart every time. This song is truly anointed of God.
This song, all of it - the instruments, the vocals, the harmonies, the heart heard in our brother - has been a source of tremendous blessing each time I hear it. It's rare we hear songs like this, ones that are simple, but pure and powerful, without trying to please a modern crowd. God bless all those involved in making this available to us. One day we will see The Lord face to face - what a glorious time for The Redeemed and a frightening day for those who refused Him. Blessings, my brethren!
Its a wonder this song has not hit 1,000,000,000 likes yet. It feels so heavenly and perfect in all ways. God bless you, for this song and its scriptural lyrics.
This is the "Stairway to Heaven" of Contemporary Christian Music, and it's completely guilt free !!! I listen to this song and it lets me know that revival is possible. Instant Popcorn!!
And I only discovered this yesterday...in my car, feeling every wave of glory every time he would answer the rethorical question « is he worthy ? »...HE IS!!!!!!! Soooo satisfying, so fulfilling
One of my all time favorites. Brings my heart into His presence every time I listen to it. Opens my heart to be still and feel the love of Jesus wash over me.
Oh! I have never heard anything so beautiful. Absolutely stunning and so anointed praise God. The hairs on the back of my neck have still not gone down 😁
11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!” 13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” 14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped. - Rev.5
@Bridget__AZ - You got it sister. Anyone want to know what Heaven is really like? Read Revelation Chaps 4 & 5. And for good measure, read 1 Cor 2: 9 & 10. "This is my story, this is my song: praising my Savior all the day long! ..." - where a day is as a thousand years!! Sound boring? Not in the least; Hallelujah, Worthy is the Lamb!!
I am sure Heaven will sound like this with everyone singing praises to our King, Our Lord, Our Messiah, Our precious Saviour ! I can not wait to praise my Daddy at His feet for all He has done to get me to Him for eternity!
I have heard others attempt to do this song, but their arrangements fail, because they're too noisy. This original version, done by the author of this song, gets it just right, where the arrangement enhances the song, rather than detracting from it. Tears fill my eyes each time I hear *this* arrangement.
Well-said. I'm not criticizing the other artists that have sung it, but this in it's simple beauty is so touching. I love the choral response. It's true worship!
This is a timeless song, one that we can worship daily in. I am caught up in the glory of God during this type of worship, no matter how long or short. God is worthy, and we need to praise him.
This song was played at my father's funeral/celebration of life in September. He was my best friend and the most amazing dad and pastor I could ever ask for. When I hear this song it always reminds me of him. Of his smile and of the things he taught me and of his faith and love for the lord that even in his battle with cancer and watching his earthly body wither away he still had faith and said "I know where I'm going." and "we don't know how much time we have on this earth. Don't waste it" my dad taught me that even in the smallest of things God uses those things to glorify and proclaim his name to the nations. In his fatherhood and kindness towards others someone might of come to Christ from that. I will always remember this song until the day I one day too will be with the lord. Thank you Andrew for this beautiful rendition
Found this video the day it was published on youtube and I have not been able to stop listening to it! Have shared it with everyone! And then tonight at friends' church, the pastor had it played at the end of the service. He is worthy!
I've only just found this video and can't believe how good it is. I'm blown away by the lyrics, the music, the videography. It should have way more views than it does. I can see why you love it so much. Blessings to you from Australia :-)
Thank you Jesus for this day that I got to see. Up close. Personal. I bow in humble adoration. Take this crown. It’s yours! It’s all yours! You gave many people for my ransom. I praise and thank you oh Most High! Promises made. Promises kept! I am undone. I hold onto you with all of me. Amen! HalleluYah!!!
Thank you Andrew, My words can’t express how this song touches my spirit. The first hundred times I cried every time Listened to it. I recently got Covid 19 when my son got it at school and brought it home to everyone. I was hit the hardest as I have asthma. It’s day 18 of illness for me now an I have been diagnosed with Covid pneumonia. Jesus and my friends prayers and I at battle this horrible illness. This afternoon I decided to climb the stairs. To build lung and leg strength back. I chose this song. Not long in to the songs chorus he is worthy. I was overwhelmed with God’s love and hope had to sit and just cry with my arms lifted high . I know there is healing in praise and worship. This is one of the best worship songs ever. Lord Jesus thank you for healing me. Thank you Andrew for the song , Mark your Brother In Jesus
I`m brazilian, from Rio de Janeiro, and came here because this song was parte of a soap opera called "Apocalipse" (based on the book of Revelations), that ended yesterday, and this song was played in the scene of the new Jerusalém. Too much Beautiful.
I get chills everytime I listen to this song. It touches something deep in my soul and spirit. It is as if Yeshua Ha'Mashiah weeps with tears of love and JOY for us. To be born-again and to know HIS voice!
My heart..not sure I breathed at all listening to this. I want to cry for All this worlds pain..but I Know the Hope that lies within me..Hold fast. I want our children to be saved..and my whole family. Lord..even so come and take us home. Soon.
I was driving the first time I heard this song. I had to pull over and weep. Beautiful, reverential worship. Bless you for your humble heart. He is worthy!
This song is a testimony of how powerful a worship song can be when Jesus is actually the subject of the song.
That's right! Praise God
Agreed. Too many “Christian” songs where artists forget who they’re supposed to be praising and just put out records.
What a beautiful thing to say. This song is utterly amazing. Thanks be to GOD. Sincerely Geraldine Martinez

Amen.
That is my experience, too. Thank you, Jesus, for this combination of beauty and truth.
Same here! Christ is utterly beautiful!
How beautiful is the communion of the Holy Spirit. 🇩🇪for Christ
Yes He is worthy. Please pray that He rules Haiti. Pray for Haiti where I live and minister as a pastor and president of a university.
Praying for you and your country right now…there is hope in Jesus. Praying many will come to him to find peace and hope…that is the answer.
Perhaps, one of the most anointed worship songs ever written
"Does our God intends to dwell again with us?" That line always gets me. So many beautiful biblical truths are implied and fulfilled there. (':

deenafinney amen
Studying Revelation 5 this week & my worship is made so much richer because of this song. Thank you, @AndrewPeterson ! ❤
I love this song. I sent this to my sister in hospital as I thought it might encourage her. She replied to say she loved it and it was one of her favorite songs. shortly after I shared this song with her she passed away. I know it brought her much comfort and I it's bringing me comfort too.
James, I’m so sad for your loss but so inspired that your dear sister is singing this in the very presence of the Lord. I hope that brings you deep peace and joy every time you hear this beautiful song. ❤️🙏🕊✝️
I'm truly sorry for your lost.
praise God
Sorry to hear of your loss. If she loved this song, though, and believed it's words, then she's with the One who is worthy. Praise God for that hope!
I'm. So sorry for your loss.
All the dark will not stop the light from getting through praise God
Powerful lyrics that came straight out of the Scripture! This is how Christian songs should be.
Amen.
Yes! That's exactly what I love about it.
Amen.
Faith comes by hearing by the word of God. Without faith it’s impossible to please God.
Faith is scripture/ bible. ❤️
Amen!
Amen! Sola scriptura! Praises to our beautiful Lamb who will return as the Lion of Judah! Repent now! Via the Lamb!
This must be one of the songs they sing in Heaven. Thank you for this expression of worship for the Lord and His glory. Is He worthy? HE IS!!!
Tyler Whigham His glory is beyond our comprehension. Jesus is our perfect Redeemer! And it’s good to “remind ourselves of this.”
That is a PRECIOUS thought, thank you.❤
I cried and cried and cried listening to this especially the part “Does the Father truly love us... He does” TEARS
Brings tears to my eyes as well! So incredibly moving and powerful! God is truly AMAZING!
I was about to comment the same! How deep the father's love for us,how vast beyond all measure!!❤
yes, I just melt when they start to sing that....it is hard sometimes to imagine....but He said it and I believe it...Grace and Mercy....
Vintage Red Rose True. I usually hold it together until Andrew Peterson gets to the part about Jesus holding us in His arms. That’s when the tears start to flow and the realization of His love for us becomes real.
Me too
The first time I heard this was Chris Tomlin's version and it came on while feeding the horses in the barn. There was something different about it and it broke me to the core. All cares faded and I stood in His prescence. God has used you in a mighty way with this worship. I can see all of us singing THIS chorus around the throne together soon.
I can see it too. It's so beautiful.
Me too.
Beautiful.
❤❤❤
wow
Being locked down for the third time in CA. God is here, working though. He IS WORTHY of praise!
I guess I never noticed the race of the singers. It felt as if all of heaven was singing this. We moved to an area that is full of every race, culture, religion. We are playing pickleball with, as of today, 10 different nationalities! We are loving and enjoying learning new cultures. I love and embrace our differences, and our sameness. Brothers and sisters in Christ, united in Spirit. Our spirits are wonderfully, mercifully without color. I can't wait for the beautifully diverse heaven where we celebrate each other and no longer see the differences of our family.
This is probably one of the most beautiful, spirit-filled pieces of music I’ve ever listened to. I cannot listen to this without tears and a heart of worship and reverence.
It doesn’t matter how many times I listen to this beautiful song, it moves me beyond measure.
agree!
me too
Agreed
I was married 13 years ago today in this beautiful church; divorced nearly 5 months ago. I see our wedding as I watch this video and it breaks me. The words break me even more, but with hope.
My brother, wife and kids sang this at my mom's funeral. Heart shred in hope.
H MO just beautiful. Im so sorry😢 we will all see each other in the presence of our King Jesus Christ 🙌
you will see her again😇
This hits so different now in the current condition of our world.
@Lion Of Judah it is!!!
@@leondhay is the glory about to be light in our mist?
@@pcpxbotendorastermace9948 He will? And really soon too.
Right? I finally appreciate the verses of this song and not just the chorus ...
So beautiful for today's situation bless ya.
This is how a song written at the feet of Jesus sounds...Thank you for giving us a taste of heavenly music on earth.
I have been listening to and singing along with this all week. I lost a brother in Christ and a sister in Christ to the grave this week, and I can still tell you “Is He worthy? HE IS!!”
This song has very quickly become one of my all time favorite worship songs. Praise be to God!
me too!
“Does our God intend to dwell again with us?”
“HE DOES!!!”
What a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness. Hallelujah! Praise be to the Lion and the Lamb🙏🏽❤️
I don't know if I've ever heard of Andrew Peterson. I just saw him on a Christian kids show on Minno. Out of curiosity I looked him up which brought me to this beautiful song. Very grateful.
Thanks AP. You may never know how many you've blessed with this. From the Birmingham City Jail to a retirement center to a small group of Christians on a Sunday night ... the answer to your question, Is He Worthy, comes ringing/echoing back to you HE IS! May the Glory of the Lord shine into every heart that experiences this video. Grace be with us all.
Amen, such an inspired song from the Scriptures
How many indeed! Recent 2024 Shepherds Conference with over 5000 physically present, how many churches watching by livestream, how many watching the recording and sharing on all the social media platforms ... six years later. Another commenter, "When you use God's word to write a song, this is what you get." Amen! May this Christ-focused song CONTINUE to bear much fruit until He returns!
Before my precious husband of almost 53 years left to be with Jesus, he (and I sometimes) sang this song at our nursing home ministry. After he left, I tried but it was incredibly hard to do. It is so beautiful and yes, the Father really does love us.
I am undone, a soul of unclean lips. Praise God for the gifts He graciously gives for His glory. He is worthy.
The world is hopeless without Christ many times I have felt ...this lack of hope because of the sad state of humans due to our sinful nature ...how we have lost respect for God for one another for his beautiful creation and yet he reminds us. He has made all things new ..this suffering will come to pass and we will all confess he is Worthy ...give us living hope Lord .. as this world decays ...in sin let your light shine in the darkness
At least 3 mil of these views are me. Thanks for the beautiful song, Andrew!
I never hear this song without feeling my heart move from despair to victory in the breadth of moments. "Is it good that we remind ourselves of this. It is."
Cathy Wall Blessings to you. May you sense the glory, beauty, and power of His presence.
Isn't it wonderful? every time I listen to it I'm listed right out of depression or sadness or anything!
Yes. I sometimes feel despair over family members who do not know Jesus of Nazareth. But then I remember that I did not know Him a year ago. And I am an old man. He flung back the curtains and opened my eyes to His Word! Jesus of Nazareth is our only hope!
Please pray for Lloyd and Fern. They are 95 and 93, respectively. They are religious, but they do not know our Lord.
Yes! Beautifully said!
Yes! A thousand times, yes! He is indeed worthy! Hallelujah!
A beautiful, well-composed and worshipful song that exalts the Lord. It makes me pause to worship Jesus every time I hear it! It is becoming a classic hymn for the church.
Beyond awesome that a modern worship song taking words straight from the scriptures and the joy I have unpacking every line and finding it to be theologically sound is amazing
Thank you!
Beautiful!
Does our God intend to dwell again with us? He Does!!..HE IS WORTHY
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard about our lovely Jesus! The tears just pour out of my eyes from my soul. Is He worthy? HE IS!!!!!!
How beautiful it would be to reach heaven and listen to the angels around us singing this song.
I'm about to write a sermon on Revelation 5:11-14 and I came here to put myself in the proper state of mind.
I just heard this song for the first time, then I replayed it 5 times both to catch each word and to experience the power of it... What an extraordinarily necessary and powerful message for people today! I've got to share this.
This is such a BEAUTIFUL song ❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. Jesus is Lord! Amen!
A very good friend told me yesterday about Andrew. Thank you Lord Jesus for this, I have long since become a snob when it comes to Christian music because I feel a lot of it is done just to make a buck. To me, it's so clear Andrew just simply wants to praise our Lord God and our savior Jesus Christ. Again, thank you heavenly Father for this.
More than just making a buck, i am more concerned about heretical churches making beautiful music. I'm honestly not sure how they do it???
@Elaine Light could you please elaborate on this, I'm not quite understanding what you mean?
@@elainelight9286 @gregorall9779 This may shed some light...
As an example, John Rutter is largely known for his compositions of Christmas carols and religious pieces (his "Candlelight Carol" is one of my favorites), but he does not himself identify as Christian or even religious. Read more here:
The gifts that God gives us are without repentance (Romans 11:29). They're ours to keep, and He won't take them back even if our misuse of them brings Him no glory whatsoever, or worse yet smears His Name. So, unfortunately, heretical churches can retain and utilize their ability to make beautiful music. The prayer is that they quickly and truly repent, allowing God to deal with their heresy.
Hope this makes sense.
Mind blown. Breath-taking artistry, passionate liturgy, and worshipful theology.
It seems like a nice song too!
As a music professor and Christ-follower, I concur!
@@haleypatillo thank you so much.
@@AmandaWilliamsMusic
Much Thanks, beautiful Song!
Singaporean by birth, living in Southern Alberta, Canada.
Summed up in one word....anointed!😊
I’m crying my eyes out !! I Love this song !!
You are so worthy my Father God
I need you 😢
I love you so much!!
❤️❤️❤️
Amen. We need Him every moment. Blessings to you from Australia
This song has always given me goosebumps. In a world filled with me-centered worship, this song was so beautiful and has brought me to tears so many times. This is so beautiful and shows the tenderness of our LORD. Thank you!
With all that’s happening in our world and in our country, it’s hard to argue that the world isn’t broken and that the shadows aren’t deepening. What we need now is our Lord, the One who is worthy, to show His power and to glorify His name.
I cannot emphasize how awesome this song is. Crying in my kitchen.
This video is done all in one cut....no breaks...the best.
I’m guessing they couldn’t move the tympani drums on set in time, hence the snare 👍❤️
@@MegaDoug First time seeing the video, (I actually thought Chris Tomlin sang this originally)
And when I heard the drum and seen what they used on set, I was like "nope, that drum doesn't make that sound" lol
There had to be at least 1 cut when it blacks out by the piano because I don’t think there would have been enough time to get the stringed instruments set up in that area
What a wonderfully powerful song for such a time as this. Our world, especially the United States of America needs to fall to their knees. If this song does not touch their heart and bend their knee, then I don’t know what will.What a wonderful version of this song Mr. Peterson! God Bless You!
I've seen/heard other versions of Is He Worthy, but it usually IS best to hear a song from the songwriter himself! We all need to share Andrew Peterson's original, SO perfect for the times...God bless you🛐👐💖
The song says, "...from every nation and tribe, every people and tongue..."!
Thank you, Andrew!
He is! God is using this song to encourage me through a hard time. Is He worthy? He is! Hallelujah!
He is
This is a rare gem of a Christian song! It touches the Holy Spirit within me and brings me to tears of praise.
Beautiful worship song that I pray will touch thousands upon thousands of more souls!
What is it about AP's songs that just totally uplift your soul & usher you into the presence of God. Thank you Andrew for again reminding us that it's all about Him & no matter how hard our lives are, it's all gonna be beautiful some day....
There is definitely something about AP's music that uplifts and encourages... It makes you think and takes you on a beautiful journey closer to God!
There are some songs that are so beautifully timeless... this is one. How could it not be though when the Worthy One transcends time? Such a stirring, deeply scriptural song. I think the Spirit really spoke through Andrew when he wrote it. No less potent in 2024 as it was some years back...
I’ve heard Andrew Peterson’s version of his song at least a hundred times. This song touches the deepest parts of my heart every time. This song is truly anointed of God.
No question that God's hand was on Andrew when he wrote this song
I still get chills at the beginning of the third verse with, “Does the Father truly love us…?”
This song, all of it - the instruments, the vocals, the harmonies, the heart heard in our brother - has been a source of tremendous blessing each time I hear it. It's rare we hear songs like this, ones that are simple, but pure and powerful, without trying to please a modern crowd. God bless all those involved in making this available to us. One day we will see The Lord face to face - what a glorious time for The Redeemed and a frightening day for those who refused Him. Blessings, my brethren!
Its a wonder this song has not hit 1,000,000,000 likes yet. It feels so heavenly and perfect in all ways. God bless you, for this song and its scriptural lyrics.
This is the "Stairway to Heaven" of Contemporary Christian Music, and it's completely guilt free !!!
I listen to this song and it lets me know that revival is possible.
Instant Popcorn!!
And I only discovered this yesterday...in my car, feeling every wave of glory every time he would answer the rethorical question « is he worthy ? »...HE IS!!!!!!! Soooo satisfying, so fulfilling
One of my all time favorites. Brings my heart into His presence every time I listen to it. Opens my heart to be still and feel the love of Jesus wash over me.
Oh! I have never heard anything so beautiful. Absolutely stunning and so anointed praise God. The hairs on the back of my neck have still not gone down 😁
The hairs all over my body just stood up and clapped!
The hairs on my arms just stood up and clapped!
LOVE THIS!!!
11 Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, 12 saying with a loud voice,
“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might
and honor and glory and blessing!”
13 And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”
14 And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped. - Rev.5
@Bridget__AZ - You got it sister. Anyone want to know what Heaven is really like? Read Revelation Chaps 4 & 5. And for good measure, read 1 Cor 2: 9 & 10.
"This is my story, this is my song: praising my Savior all the day long! ..." - where a day is as a thousand years!! Sound boring? Not in the least; Hallelujah, Worthy is the Lamb!!
Bo Sun thumbs up 10,000+ times!!!!!!
Our choir sang this at Easter service yesterday and I loved it. Then I listened to Andrew's original version and was truly blessed this morning too!
I am sure Heaven will sound like this with everyone singing praises to our King, Our Lord, Our Messiah, Our precious Saviour ! I can not wait to praise my Daddy at His feet for all He has done to get me to Him for eternity!
I have heard others attempt to do this song, but their arrangements fail, because they're too noisy. This original version, done by the author of this song, gets it just right, where the arrangement enhances the song, rather than detracting from it. Tears fill my eyes each time I hear *this* arrangement.
Well-said. I'm not criticizing the other artists that have sung it, but this in it's simple beauty is so touching. I love the choral response. It's true worship!
Agree! I’ve listened to other singers do it but always come back to this one.
Andrew Peterson’s song called “The sower’s song” is also beautiful🙌🏽listen to it when you get a chance
I love this one but the Tomlin version is amazing too.
This song left me in tears and adoration of Christ, with an attitude refocused on his worth!
This is a timeless song, one that we can worship daily in. I am caught up in the glory of God during this type of worship, no matter how long or short. God is worthy, and we need to praise him.
Beautiful....how can anyone write a song like this? ...Im amazed.. it a miracle ❤❤❤❤❤
Lion of Judah , Saint Spirit, Eternal Creator take possession of my life! 🙏 ❤
This song was played at my father's funeral/celebration of life in September. He was my best friend and the most amazing dad and pastor I could ever ask for. When I hear this song it always reminds me of him. Of his smile and of the things he taught me and of his faith and love for the lord that even in his battle with cancer and watching his earthly body wither away he still had faith and said "I know where I'm going." and "we don't know how much time we have on this earth. Don't waste it" my dad taught me that even in the smallest of things God uses those things to glorify and proclaim his name to the nations. In his fatherhood and kindness towards others someone might of come to Christ from that. I will always remember this song until the day I one day too will be with the lord. Thank you Andrew for this beautiful rendition
Beautiful tribute to your Dad.
I’m obsessed with this song 😭 So beautiful! Thank you Jesus for you ARE WORTHY!!
Found this video the day it was published on youtube and I have not been able to stop listening to it! Have shared it with everyone! And then tonight at friends' church, the pastor had it played at the end of the service. He is worthy!
I've only just found this video and can't believe how good it is. I'm blown away by the lyrics, the music, the videography. It should have way more views than it does. I can see why you love it so much. Blessings to you from Australia :-)
i never comment, but this song brought me to the best place...worship! oh my and tears... heavenly, replaying over and over
Thank you Jesus for this day that I got to see. Up close. Personal. I bow in humble adoration. Take this crown. It’s yours! It’s all yours! You gave many people for my ransom. I praise and thank you oh Most High! Promises made. Promises kept! I am undone. I hold onto you with all of me. Amen! HalleluYah!!!
Thank you Andrew, My words can’t express how this song touches my spirit. The first hundred times I cried every time Listened to it. I recently got Covid 19 when my son got it at school and brought it home to everyone. I was hit the hardest as I have asthma. It’s day 18 of illness for me now an I have been diagnosed with Covid pneumonia.
Jesus and my friends prayers and I at battle this horrible illness.
This afternoon I decided to climb the stairs. To build lung and leg strength back. I chose this song. Not long in to the songs chorus he is worthy. I was overwhelmed with God’s love and hope had to sit and just cry with my arms lifted high . I know there is healing in praise and worship. This is one of the best worship songs ever.
Lord Jesus thank you for healing me. Thank you Andrew for the song ,
Mark your Brother In Jesus
It is October 18th 2021. He is so very close to returning. This song brought tears this morning. Is He worthy? HE IS!! ✝️😊🙏
November 5, 2023 today and our Lord’s return is even closer. He is Worthy!Maranatha!
This is a FABULOUS song. Both versions are annointed. Thank you Andrew for listening to God & being the conduit for this truly AMAZING song.
I can’t listen to this song without falling on my knees offering my tears to our Lord...finally some music that truly honors Him!!
This song never gets old.
The LORD said humble yourselves get the pride out of yourselves. God have mercy on us. This is beautiful and true. Hallelujah amen.
I`m brazilian, from Rio de Janeiro, and came here because this song was parte of a soap opera called "Apocalipse" (based on the book of Revelations), that ended yesterday, and this song was played in the scene of the new Jerusalém. Too much Beautiful.
ROBSON JOSÉ DA SILVA yes this was a amazing
Oh that's why... I was wondering about all these comments
@@mychocochip yeah that's why my friend
Is there any way to find this show in US?
That is so cool. Is there somewhere I can find it?
Oh my. What a glorious song that lifted my heart in worship. Thank you for using your talents to bring glory to God. He is indeed worthy.
Mr Peterson, this song is huge! Well done and God bless you brother!
There are some songs/videos that are just so spirit breathed that it is impossible for me not to cry out in appreciation and worship; this is one.
Baruch haShem Adonai Yeshua. Blessed be the Name of the Lord Jesus. For He alone is worthy!
One of the most inspiring songs I've heard in a long time. God's perfect timing for many!
Even more so now it seems.
I get chills everytime I listen to this song. It touches something deep in my soul and spirit. It is as if Yeshua Ha'Mashiah weeps with tears of love and JOY for us. To be born-again and to know HIS voice!
My heart..not sure I breathed at all listening to this. I want to cry for All this worlds pain..but I Know the Hope that lies within me..Hold fast. I want our children to be saved..and my whole family. Lord..even so come and take us home. Soon.
He's coming.
I was driving the first time I heard this song. I had to pull over and weep. Beautiful, reverential worship.
Bless you for your humble heart.
He is worthy!
This is the first time I've ever heard this song. I love it so much, I actually got choked up listening to it.
Almost 24 hours later, and having listened to it several times, I'm still getting choked up.
Me, too. First time I ever heard it.
