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!"
Were the whole earth echoing His eminence
His name would burst from sea and sky
From the rivers to the mountain tops
We'd hear, "Christ be magnified!"
(Be magnified)
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
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!"
Oh, Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Come on, from your heart say
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
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
More of You Jesus
More of You, less of me
More of You, less of me
I want more of You Jesus
I'm committed to you Jesus
I'm committed to you Jesus
Through all my life
For all my life
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'll hold fast to what is true
And if the cross brings transformation
Then I'll be crucified 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
Yes, my heart will still be singing
My song will be the same
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
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
Yea-yea-yea-yea-yea-yea-yeah
I'm standing strong
Whatever it looks like
Whatever it looks like
I'll sing Your name
I'll sing Your name forever, Jesus
You have my heart forever, Jesus
If I'm in the fire, You're there too
If I'm in the fire, You're there too
I'll lay down my life
I'll lay down my life
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'll 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
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
Yes, my heart will still be singing
My song will be the same
No, 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'll hold fast to what is true
And if the cross brings transformation
Then I'll be crucified 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!
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
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
Hallelujah!
Come on, give Him praise!
Hallelujah!
