Leeland, a popular Christian worship band, released a song titled “Inhabit” that explores the powerful connection between praise and God’s presence. The core idea is this: when we sing praises to God, we invite him to be close to us.
The song uses the image of inhabiting a space. Leeland sings about how our praises create a place where God feels welcome to dwell. It’s like setting a beautiful table and inviting a special guest for a meal. The praise is the preparation, and God’s presence is the honored guest.
“Inhabit” is more than just a catchy tune. It’s a reminder that our worship has the power to draw God near. So next time you find yourself singing praises, know that you’re not just expressing thanks, you’re creating a space where you can experience God’s presence in a deeper way.

Inhabit Lyrics by Leeland
Our praise
Becomes
Your house
Your place
We sing a song and You come in
Make a dance and You come in
Shout Your name and You come in
Give You praise and You come in
Sing a song and You come in
Make a dance and You come in
Shout Your name and You come in
Give You praise
You inhabit the praises of Your people
You inhabit the praises of Your people
You inhabit the praises of Your people
You inhabit the praises of Your people
