The Story Behind “Big God” by Terrian

The story behind “Big God” by Terrian

Story behind the song “Big God”:

“Sometimes you can convince yourself that your problems are bigger than God, and it’s just not true. He sees things in a way we don’t see it. I like that the song is upbeat, but lyrically, it means a lot. It’s gotten me out of bed a few times, just listening to it.”

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling.”

Isaiah 40:29-31
“He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.

Lyrics to “Big God”:

Yeah, yeah, yeah

With foes on my left and fears on my right
They think that I'm all by myself in this fight
But they do not know the infinite size
Of the God who's by my side (hey)

Under fire, but my goliaths
Standing in the shadow of the Almighty
I ain't lying (no, no)
Just testifying

Man, I'm talking 'bout a big God, big God
When trouble comes around the way
Only remedy for big odds is a big God (big God)
Ain't nobody gonna shake my faith

No, I'm not afraid to throw my hands up in praise
For the times that He pulled me through
I'm counting on a big God that they can't stop (can't stop)
He's a big God

Why in the world would I worry away
When I know that He holds my world in His hands?
The monsters I face don't make me afraid
When I know that I'm standing right next to Him

Man, I'm talking 'bout a big God, big God (big God)
When trouble comes around the way
Only remedy for big odds is a big God (big God)
Ain't nobody gonna shake my faith

No, I'm not afraid to throw my hands up in praise
For the times that He pulled me through
I'm counting on a big God that they can't stop (big God)
He's a big God

than your brokenness
(Deeper) than your dreams not seen yet
(Greater) than your greatest fear
(Bigger) He's so much bigger

when I couldn't get up
(Deeper) I could always feel Your love
(Greater) You're picking me up
(Bigger) I could always feel Your love

Man, I'm counting on a big God, big God (big God)
When trouble comes around the way
Only remedy for big odds is a big God (big God)
Ain't nobody gonna shake my faith (no)

No, I'm not afraid to throw my hands up in praise
For the times that He pulled me through (pulled me through)
No, I'm not afraid of the things that I face
'Cause I know what I've seen Him do

I'm counting on a big God
That they can't stop (big God)
He's a big God (oh yeah)

You're a big God, You're a big God (big God, big God)
Hey, yeah (big God, big God)
I know we got a (big God, big God)
Yeah, we got a big God
