CHRIST BE MAGNIFIED LYRICS BY I AM THEY

[VERSE 1]

Were creation suddenly articulate

With a thousand tongues to life one cry

Then from the north to south and east to west

We's 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 mountaintops

We'd hear Christ be magnified 

[CHORUS]

Oh Christ be magnified

Let His praise arise

Christ be magnified in me 

Oh Christ be magnified

From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me

[VERSE 3]

When every creature finds its inmost melody

And every human heart its native cry

Oh then in one enraptured hymn of praise

We'll sing Christ be magnified

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

I won't bow to idols

I'll stand strong and worship You

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

Cause death is just the doorway

Into resurrection life

If I join You in your sufferings 

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

And my song will ne the same 

[CHORUS]

[END CHORUS]

Oh Christ be magnified

Let His praise arise

Christ be magnified in me

Oh Christ be magnified

From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me
