Great is the Lord
and most worthy of praise,
in the city of our God, the holy place,
the joy of the whole earth.
Great is the Lord
in whom we have the victory,
he aids us against the enemy,
we bow down on our knees.
Chorus
And Lord, we want to lift your name on high,
and Lord, we want to thank you
for the works you’ve done in our lives;
and Lord, we trust in your unfailing love,
for you alone are God eternal,
throughout earth and heaven above.
Awake, awake, O Zion,
And clothe yourself with strength,
Shake off your dust
And fix your eyes on Him.
For you have been redeemed by
The precious blood of Jesus,
And now you sit enthroned with Him.
Chorus
Our God reigns,
He is King of all the earth.
Our God reigns,
And He’s seated on the throne.
Lift your voice,
And sing a song of praise.
Our God reigns,
The awesome Lord most high.
Verse 2
How beautiful the feet are
Of those who bring good news,
For they proclaim the peace that comes from God.
Rise up, you holy nation,
Proclaim the great salvation,
And say to Zion ‘Your God reigns.’
Bridge
Emmanuel, Emmanuel,
Our God is with us now.
Verse 3
The watchmen lift their voices,
And raise a shout of joy,
For He will come again.
Then all eyes will see the
Salvation of our God,
For He has redeemed Jerusalem.
Give to our God immortal praise;
mercy and truth are all his ways:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
Verse 2
Give to the Lord of lords renown;
the King of kings with glory crown:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when lords and kings are known no more.
Verse 3
He built the Earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song.
Verse 4
He fills the sun with morning light,
he bids the moon direct the night:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.
Verse 5
He sent his Son with power to save
from guilt and darkness and the grave:
wonders of grace to God belong,
repeat his mercies in your song
Only by grace can we enter,
only by grace can we stand;
not by our human endeavour,
but by the blood of the Lamb.
Into your presence you call us,
you call us to come,
into your presence you draw us,
and now by your grace we come,
now by your grace we come.
Chorus
Lord if you mark our transgressions,
who will stand?
Thanks to your grace
we are cleansed
by the blood of the Lamb.
Holy, holy,
holy is the Lord God Almighty.
Who was and is and is to come,
who was and is and is to come.
Chorus
Lift up his name with the sound of singing,
lift up his name in all the earth.
Lift up your voice and give him glory,
for he is worthy to be praised.
I cast my mind to Calvary
Where Jesus bled and died for me.
I see His wounds, His hands, His feet.
My Saviour on that cursed tree
Verse 2
His body bound and drenched in tears
They laid Him down in Joseph’s tomb.
The entrance sealed by heavy stone
Messiah still and all alone
Chorus
O praise the name of the Lord our God
O praise His name forever more
For endless days we will sing Your praise
Oh Lord, oh Lord our God
Verse 3
Then on the third at break of dawn,
The Son of heaven rose again.
O trampled death where is your sting?
The angels roar for Christ the King
Verse 4
He shall return in robes of white,
The blazing Son shall pierce the night.
And I will rise among the saints,
My gaze transfixed on Jesus’ face
