Christ be Magnified (Live)

And were creation suddenly articulate
With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
Then from north, to south, and east to west
We'd hear, "Christ be magnified!"

And 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!"
Sing this chorus with me, "Oh! Christ be magnified!"

We're singing, oh! Christ be magnified!
Just let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Singing oh! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me

And when every creature
When every creature finds its inmost melody
And every human heart, its native cry
In one
And then in one enraptured hymn of praise
We'll sing, "Christ be magnified!"
Be magnified in us, Lord, singin'

Oh! Christ be magnified!
Just let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
We're singing, oh! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me

Everything I have is Yours
Surrendered, here at Your feet, Father
Sing this with me, "I won't bow to idols"

And I won't bow to idols
I'll stand strong and worship You
And if it puts me through the fire
I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
And I won't be formed by feelings
I'll hold fast to what is true
'Cause if the cross brings transformation
You can hang me there with You

'Cause death is just the doorway
Into resurrection life
And if I join You in Your suffering
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

Oh! Christ be magnified!
Just let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
We're singing, oh! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Sing it again, oh!

Hear, oh! Christ be magnified!
Just let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Singing, oh! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
And Christ be magnified in me
