Christ Be Magnified

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 rivers to the mountain tops
We'd hear Christ be magnified

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

When every creature
Finds its inmost melody
And every human heart
Its native cry
O then in one enraptured
Hymn of praise
We'll sing Christ be magnified

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

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

'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
And my song will be the same

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
