Hallelujah
From Hebrew, meaning “Praise the Lord.” It's not just an exclamation — it's a command to our own souls to worship God for who He is and what He's done.
Worship in Spirit & Truth
What does Agnus Dei really mean?
A plain-language guide to the words we sing, the Bible behind them, and why worship is more than music at Kingdom House.
The song
Agnus Dei means
Lamb of God.
Agnus Dei is Latin for “Lamb of God.” It comes straight from Scripture — John the Baptist pointed at Jesus and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29).
In the Old Testament, God's people sacrificed a lamb to cover their sin. The lamb had to be spotless — innocent, perfect, willing. Jesus became that Lamb once and for all. He was innocent, yet He laid down His life so our sin could be removed, not just covered.
When we sing “Agnus Dei” in worship, we are declaring who Jesus is: the holy, worthy, sacrificial Lamb who is worthy of every throne, every crown, and every voice.
“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!”— Revelation 5:12
Common worship words
Words we sing,
explained.
Hosanna
A cry for salvation: “Save us, we pray.” The crowds shouted it when Jesus entered Jerusalem. Today it means we welcome Jesus as our King and our rescuer.
Worthy
In Revelation, the elders fall down and call Jesus worthy. To call Him worthy is to say He deserves the highest place — not because of what He did for us, but because of who He is.
Why it matters
Worship is our
response.
At Kingdom House, worship isn't a performance. It's a response to a Person. When we sing Agnus Dei, Hosanna, or Worthy, we're joining heaven's song around the throne.
We believe the Holy Spirit is present in worship. He meets us, speaks to us, and draws us closer to Jesus. That's why our services make room for real encounter — not just singing through a setlist.
Whether you've sung these songs for decades or you're hearing them for the first time, you're welcome to worship with us. The words may be ancient, but the invitation is always fresh.
