Story Behind The Song
"I Am Your Temple" was birthed from a place of deep reflection on what it truly means to belong to God. One day, while meditating on Romans 12:1, which urges us to present our bodies as a living sacrifice, I was reminded that our lives are not our own, we are the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. That truth stirred something in my heart, and the lyrics began to flow as a personal prayer of surrender.
The song is more than melody; it is a cry for God to take my life, my voice, and my all, and use me as His vessel. It came from a desire to not just sing about God but to be a reflection of His presence in everything I do. "I Am Your Temple" is my reminder, and also my offering, that every breath, every step, and every song should rise as holy praise to the One who lives in me.

Lyrics
I am your temple by oge stan
VERSE
Here I stand, A temple of flame
Shaped and Carved by your holy mighty hand
No wall of stones, no tower high
But a dwelling place where your spirit abides
Your fire burn refining my soul
Your voice a whispers and gently calls
My life a song to glorify your name
I am your temple, a living sacrifice
Let my life rise and your glory show
CHORUS :
I am your temple, a living sacrifice
Let my life rise as your holy praise
I am your vessel, Fill me till I overflow
Let my life rise as your holy praise
I belong to you Yahweh
I belong to you, i am yours
I am yours
VERSE:
Here I stand in the fire of your grace
Purify me till only you i find
Every heartbeat, Every breath
Shall Glorify your name
Your fire cleanse , your fire seal
Burn within the chambers of my heart
Let the incense of my life ascend
A fragrant of worship without an end
I am you temple, a living Sacrifice
Let my life rise and your glory show
REPEAT CHORUS
Let my life rise as holy praise
