Our God

Chris Tomlin's version of this song is very powerful. Tomlin uses a very repetitive technique in this song, if you look at the lyrics the phrase "Our God is greater" along with other similar phrases are repeated at a minimum of 7 time through the entire song. The use of this repetition sends a very strong and clear message that our God is greater, stronger, and so much more. In the song when Tomlin states that our God is healer. By this Tomlin is describing our God as not only a physical healer but a spiritual healer. Our God can not only save our lives on this earth but for the rest of eternity. The song also talks of a few of the miracles God preformed through his son on earth. In the very first line of the song it talks about how He turned water into wine. I believe this also symbolizes God's power to turn our entire life's around if need be. He can turn nobody into somebody just like he did with the water no one cared for into wine that everyone wanted.
