The message of "My Worship" centers entirely on unreserved surrender. Thompson constructs the track around three basic movements: an affirmation of worth, an offering of devotion, and an enduring commitment to sustain that posture through every season of life.
Verse:
You Lord, You are worthy
And You deserve it
You deserve it
You Lord, You are worthy
And You deserve it
You deserve it
Chorus:
Here is my worship
Smile on me
Here is my worship
Smile on me
Refrain:
You deserve it
You deserve it
You deserve it
You deserve it
Bridge / Vamp:
Don't let my worship cease
As long as I am breathing
Don't let my worship cease
As long as I am breathing
Here is my worship
Smile on me
Here is my worship
Smile on me
The theological mechanics here rely on biblical concepts of sacrifice. In traditional Hebrew worship, a sacrifice was not offered because the worshipper felt cheerful; it was offered because God's character demanded recognition. When vocalists repeat "You Lord, You are worthy," they redirect focus away from personal circumstances. The petition "Smile on me" echoes the Aaronic blessing of Numbers 6:25, asking for divine favor and acceptance of an imperfect human offering. The bridge, "Don't let my worship cease / As long as I am breathing," establishes worship as an involuntary reflex akin to respiration, a lifelong commitment that outlasts temporary emotional highs.
