lyrics
VERSE 1
Come let us sing for joy unto the Lord
And lift a shout unto the rock of our salvation
Let us come before Him now with thankful hearts
Extol Him with music and song.
PRECHORUS
For the Lord is the great God,
The great King above all gods.
CHORUS 1
He is our God, He is the Lord our Maker
We lift our praise to Him alone.
We are His children; we are the sheep of His hand.
We raise a joyful noise before His throne.
VERSE 2
The sea is His, His hands formed all that is:
The depths of earth and mountain peaks belong to Him
Creation testifies of His great pow’r
The Lord of heaven and earth!
REPEAT PRECHORUS & CHORUS 1
BRIDGE
I worship and bow down
I kneel before my Maker
I worship and bow down
I kneel before my Maker
And I say “You are My God.”
CHORUS 2
You are my God, You are the Lord my Maker
I lift my praise to You alone.
I am Your child, I am the sheep of Your hand.
I raise a joyful noise before Your throne.
CHORUS 3
You are our God, You are the Lord, our Maker
We lift our praise to You alone.
We are Your children, We are the sheep of Your hand.
We raise a joyful noise before Your throne.
