“Resurrecting” by Elevation Worship is a powerful song that celebrates the core belief of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The lyrics paint a picture of Jesus’ suffering on the cross, symbolized by the “crown of thorns” mentioned in the song. But the darkness is quickly replaced by light. The song reminds listeners that Jesus didn’t stay dead – he was “raised from the grave,” conquering death itself.
This event, according to the song, has a profound impact on our lives. The resurrection signifies that God’s power can bring new life even in the face of despair. The song describes this transformation as God “resurrecting” something within us, a sense of hope and purpose fueled by his love. “Resurrecting” is a declaration of praise and a reminder that through faith, we too can experience a kind of personal resurrection.

Resurrecting Lyrics by Elevation Worship
VERSE 1
The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now
The Savior knelt to wash our feet
Now at his feet we bow
VERSE 2
The one who wore our sin and shame
Now robed in majesty
The radiance of perfect love
Now shines for all to see
CHORUS (x2)
Your name
Your name
Is victory
All praise
Will rise
To Christ our king
VERSE 3
The fear that held us now gives way
To him who is our peace
His final breath upon the cross
Is now alive in me
BRIDGE (x3)
By your spirit I will rise
From the ashes of defeat
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
In your name I come alive
To declare your victory
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
VERSE 4
The tomb where soldiers watched in vain
Was borrowed for three days
His body there would not remain
Our God has robbed the grave
Our God has robbed the grave

[Verso 1]
De espinas su corona fue
Mas hoy de gloria es
El Salvador lavó mis pies
Me rindo ante Él
[Verso 2]
Cayó mi culpa sobre aquel
Que hoy reina en majestad
Su amor perfecto iluminó
Toda la humanidad
[Coro]
Tu Nombre Dios, victoria es
Mi adoración a Cristo el Rey
[Verso 3]
No tengo nada que temer
Mi paz descansa en Ti
Jesús moriste en esa cruz
Para salvarme a mí
[Coro]
Tu Nombre Dios, victoria es
Mi adoración a Cristo el Rey
[Puente]
Derrotado ya no estoy
Por Tu espíritu en mí
Jesús resucitó
Y vivo está en mí
En Tu nombre vivo estoy
La victoria tengo en ti
Jesús resucitó
Y vivo está en mí
[Verso 4]
La tumba vigilada fue
En vano sin saber
Que a la muerte nuestro Dios
Venció con su poder
