PRAISE
Verse 1
I’ll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain
I’ll praise when I’m sure
Praise when I’m doubting
I’ll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
'Cause praise is the water
My enemies drown in
Pre-Chorus
As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to
Chorus 1
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Verse 2
I’ll praise when I feel it
And I’ll praise when I don’t
I’ll praise 'cause I know
You’re still in control
'Cause my praise is a weapon
It’s more than a sound
My praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down
Chorus 2
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Bridge

Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul

How could I keep it inside
I won’t be quiet

How could I keep it inside

THIS IS OUR GOD
Verse 1
Remember those walls that we called sin and shame
They were like prisons that we couldn’t escape
But He came and He died and He rose
Those walls are rubble now
Remember those giants we called death and grave
They were like mountains that stood in our way
But He came and He died and He rose
Those giants are dead now
Chorus
This is our God this is who He is
He loves us
This is our God this is what He does
He saves us
He bore the cross beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God King Jesus
Verse 2
Remember that fear that took our breath away
Faith so weak that we could barely pray
But He heard every word every whisper
Now those altars in the wilderness
Tell the story of His faithfulness
Never once did He fail and He never will
Bridge
Who pulled me out of that pit
He did He did
Who paid for all of our sin
Nobody but Jesus
Bridge
Who rescued me from that grave
Yahweh Yahweh
Who gets the glory and praise
Nobody but Jesus (Him)
Ending
He bore the cross beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God King Jesus
CHRIST BE MAGNIFIED
Verse 1
Were creation suddenly articulate
With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
Then from north to south and east to wes
We'd hear Christ be magnified
Verse 2
Were the whole earth echoing His eminence
His name would burst from sea and sky
From rivers to the mountain tops
We'd hear Christ be magnified
Chorus
O Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Verse 3
When ev'ry creature finds its inmost melody
And ev'ry human heart its native cry
O then in one enraptured hymn of praise
We'll sing Christ be magnified
Bridge
I won't bow to idols
I'll stand strong and worship You
And if it puts me in the fire
I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
I won't be formed by feelings
I hold fast to what is true
If the cross brings transformation
Then I'll be crucified with You
(You can hang me there with You)
Bridge
'Cause death is just the doorway
Into resurrection life
If I join You in Your suff'rings
Then I'll join You when You rise
And when You return in glory
With all the angels and the saints
My heart will still be singing
My song will be the same
Chorus
O Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
HOW GREAT THOU ART
Verse 1
O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow'r thru'out
The universe displayed
Chorus
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Verse 2
And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin
Verse 3
When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
My God how great Thou art
