This is meant to be the first song followers of Jesus open their ears in the morning. For real. It starts up the day reminding us to worship God in the morning, afternoon, evening, and at the close of the day! We were created to Worship God. Period!
I just posted on my site how John just brought one of our last 3 cats home with a possible cancer diagnosis, I sit here hardly able to walk from debilitating arthritis wondering what is left for me, I look around at the world fighting discouragement daily when all of a sudden this song came into my head playing full stop! Our hope is NOT here and Jesus has so much for us when this opening act is over and we are all over into the Main Event! Thank You, Lord! And thank you for such re-focusing songs while we are here. (hugs) :)
This is one of Vertical Church Band's first best songs. I still see many of the people in this video at our church every Sunday. Love Meredith! She had the radiant preggy look there.
She is definitely anointed because a worship leader is supposed to draw people into worship and God gets the glory. She exalts Him above all and you can tell that her heart is pure. She loves what she does, She loves the Lord and giving Him all the attention and all of the praise.
God is center of this beautiful girl life. Great singer and even better person. Pure heart and loves God!! THERE IS NO QUESTION WHERE SHE!!!! YOU CAN SEE THE GREAT LIBERTY UNIVERSITY ALL OVER HER!!
The word "worship" is completely exemplified. Amazing lyrics and the music alone gets one up on their feet. I hope to be using this song during our worship soon!
i got to meet her on 12-21-14 AND 12-22-14 she is an AMAZING, beautiful, sweet, AND honest, young women. I LOVE this girl so much. God Bless You Meredith Andrews
We've waited for this day We're gathered in your name Calling out to you Your glory like a fire Awakening desire Will burn our hearts with truth You're the reason we're here You're the reason we're singing [Chorus:] Open up the heavens We want to see you Open up the floodgates A mighty river Flowing from your heart Filling every part of our praise Your presence in this place Your glory on our face We're looking to the sky Descending like a cloud You're standing with us now Lord, unveil our eyes You're the reason we're here You're the reason we're singing [Repeat Chorus] [Bridge] Show us, show us your glory Show us, show us your power Show us, show us your glory, Lord [Repeat Chorus]
AMAZING🙏🏼🙏🏼 Only a true heart can bring tears to your eyes & Open up your heart😇 Thank you Meredith & The Vertical church band.... God Bless you for ALL you do!!
Still In 2019 listening and love the song, Meredith Andrew, love you and God bless you more and more and Use your beautiful voice for His glory to the world....Love you From Malaysia
This version is way better than her studio/album version.. They like toned it down and slowed it down. I love this version. It's raw, it's real it's upbeat and she sounds great.
Such a wonderful song,Glory to Jesus!I can't wait to play it in our church..thank you for this song Vertical Church band & Meredith Andrews,Godbless you:-)
i love merediths smile. my household is mormon, so when they saw me listening to this, they think of her as part an apostacy. but to me she sings like an angel, and is certainly part of my church.
S.A. B I was baptized Feb. 14, 1996 Bountiful 16th ward. Never let anyone shame any kind of praise worship to the Lord! I feel that the boundaries that the church placed on certain parts of my life of worship made me move away from the Mormon church. I am a very blessed Christian who goes thru trials that seem extra hard but when I come thru I am even more blessed. Peace :)
She absolutely 💯 makes me get VERY excited and 😔 emotional all at the same time She's truly a 💎 Gem and sings like the 😇 Angels---I had the privilege of meeting Mere in Knoxville Tn and it floored her when I said I compared her to a modern- day version of My absolute fav CCM artist of all-time, Twilight Paris, I honored think she was moved, flattered and taken aback all @ the same time ⏲ time, (what an honor and treat for me 2 say the least. She should be in the Gospel music 🎶 HOF😉💙💚❤🙏👊🤙💯💁♀️
Meredith, Thank you for your inspiration. I am also training to be a worship leader. I am a freshman at Dallas Baptist University, and have been working with our church, StoneBridge in The Woodlands Texas for a number of years. I was even fortunate enough to go with Todd Agnew to a Recovery Event in Prescot Arizona this past fall. I long to bring the hope and joy to those who are less fortunate than I. To know our God's great Love for us is to be blessed beyond belief. It is this Love that I love sharing with others. I'll be in the Audience at girls night out event on the 28th on the Southside of Houston with my mom and my roommate from college. It would be great to meet you sometime. I'll be in the pit row 3. Looking forward to worshiping together.
Love it. Great song. Great production. Cool circular set up. I sat in with a worship leader who wanted to try this song. I had never heard it prior to that. Fell in love with it.
U are great just know that all those people that have disliked ur song is so wrong this is my favorite song u should be so proud of yourself awesome job!!!!😍😁
That is what you call true talent! That was absolutely amazing Meredith and well you do have talent beyond compare. I just wish u best in your future career going ahead and man I would be honored and love to one day write praise music for you...(bucket list, ha ha) I have got plenty written for you to shift through. I have been writing music since I was 12 and now I am a very young 44 ;) and disappointed for not asking the world sooner what I wanted for my dream, my vision, my life, and have the ability to stepback, get out of my own way, and then the most important part happen... HAVE FAITH AND BELIEVE =) .you just have such a blessed day and thanks for all you do with the spirit of and in your music. ~Jennifer Stutzman

That explains the glow around her. Awesome performance.

Meredith Meredith Meredith ... I really really thank God for raising you up as an artist for His glory. [from Phils.]
Powerful words sung by a gifted voice. At about 1:31 into this music, Meredith opens her voice......Wonderful !
The word "worship" is completely exemplified. Amazing lyrics and the music alone gets one up on their feet. I hope to be using this song during our worship soon!
..Love the open floor arrangement, cool vibe, really rocking out!! We love you Meredith, from Dominica (Caribbean)!

We've waited for this day
We're gathered in your name
Calling out to you
Your glory like a fire
Awakening desire
Will burn our hearts with truth
You're the reason we're here
You're the reason we're singing
[Chorus:]
Open up the heavens
We want to see you
Open up the floodgates
A mighty river
Flowing from your heart
Filling every part of our praise
Your presence in this place
Your glory on our face
We're looking to the sky
Descending like a cloud
You're standing with us now
Lord, unveil our eyes
You're the reason we're here
You're the reason we're singing
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
Show us, show us your glory
Show us, show us your power
Show us, show us your glory, Lord
[Repeat Chorus]
Thanks for the lyrics. Makes the song even more powerful.
Always sings with a smile on her face :) a reflection of the heart!

Meredith and also, Jenn Johnson really leap out of the radio. They have such powerful voices.

Thank You Lord for the gift you have given Meredith to bring us closer to You!
the song....totally speaks out everything!!!
Great song, both have great voices. Glory to God...I luv it
God is showing us His glory an power thro this song and the singer. Go for it, Meredith!
This version is way better than her studio/album version.. They like toned it down and slowed it down. I love this version. It's raw, it's real it's upbeat and she sounds great.
And there is no where to download it on iTunes. Frustrating...
Yhhh, I love it

Same tempo 🤷🏽♂️

Awesome, live version..
We’ve waited for this day
We’ve gathered in Your name
Calling out to You
Your glory like a fire
The Awaken Desire
Burn our hearts with Truth
i love merediths smile. my household is mormon, so when they saw me listening to this, they think of her as part an apostacy. but to me she sings like an angel, and is certainly part of my church.
whenever i tell my mormon kin such things, they toss it out. so i always reap briars for being honest, and it hurts.
I am so sorry to hear that you "kin" object to this music; yet moreso, that you have had to get hurt by your own, friend . . .
Yes, but Mormon is the easiest way for me, even though they can be mean, because they have an open cannon, which the other churches don't have.
seek Jesus and the true salvation only he can provide...I will join you in prayer for your family...reach up! grab His hand. he is waiting.
S.A. B
I was baptized Feb. 14, 1996 Bountiful 16th ward. Never let anyone shame any kind of praise worship to the Lord! I feel that the boundaries that the church placed on certain parts of my life of worship made me move away from the Mormon church.
I am a very blessed Christian who goes thru trials that seem extra hard but when I come thru I am even more blessed.
Peace :)
I could listen to this on repeat all day
I love this song ❤️ amazing worship.
This song brings tears of joy every time I hear it. Amazing what God invokes in our spirit! Thank you for allowing God to move through you.
Best worship song ever!!
