Resound Worship’s 12 Song Challenge this month was to take inspiration from the great creeds of the church. I was at the annual Resound Worship Songwriters’ Retreat at Wydale Hall in Yorkshire, UK so had plenty of time to reflection, and I took inspiration from the Nicene Creed. Pairing up with the very talented Sue Crossman of Hopestream Worship, we came up with this. Each verse focusses on expanding, in language simple enough for children, each person of the Trinity. Since writing it, we’ve used it regularly in our Sunday School and family services and it’s a hit with young and old alike.

This song was written out of a desire to honour God with our praise and worship but, not in a big loud way, which is unusual for me because I love songs that are big and loud and have a driving beat, but in a more reverent and thoughtful way. I tried to be as careful and thoughtful with the lyrics as I could whilst also maintaining a rhyming scheme and a singable melody.
Ali Loaker, Dan weeks
This song is about the roar of the Lion of the tribe of Judah coming back to the Church in an age where so many things are coming against the spirit of God. The Church needs to find its roar again, just like in the days of old.
