I used to think that no one knew
That no one really cared
But that was before I found You
Now I know You’re always there

Hallelujah to the Lamb on the throne
Hallelujah to the Almighty One
This overflowing love You gave to me
You’ve taken me to mould and change me
Hallelujah Lamb of God

I used to think I was alone
That no one would love me
But now I know the battle’s won
And You’ll never leave me

Hallelujah to the Lamb on the throne
Hallelujah to the Almighty One
This overflowing love You gave to me
You’ve taken me to mould and change me
Hallelujah Lamb of God

Cos You’re my Lord and Saviour
My one and only king
The One I’ll praise for all my days
And I will always sing

Hallelujah to the Lamb on the throne
Hallelujah to the Almighty One
This overflowing love You gave to me
You’ve taken me to mould and change me
Hallelujah Lamb of God



1. What was the inspiration behind the song?

Clarissa: The common but great answers are God and Jesus! But to me there is one more important - how everyone would one day leave us but God would never forsake us.

Veena: Just like Clarissa said, my main inspiration behind the lyrics was God and Jesus. I also drew on some of my own personal experiences with God for inspiration. I decided that the lyrics would represent how God can transform our lives for the better. I also wanted the lyrics to be encouraging and simple so that teenagers could relate to them.

Eleanore: My inspiration for this song was to encourage Christians in their walk with God, and that God would help them.
2. What are you trying to express/communicate through the song?

Clarissa: I felt that we needed to evangelise to back-sliding Christians and non-Christians. And the best way is through music (song).

Veena: To convey the message of Christianity to non-Christians and those who have lost faith in God due to past experiences. Most importantly though, I want to let people know that God loves each and every one of us unconditionally, no matter what!

Eleanore: To encourage others, to comfort them that the Lord is always with them.
