Lyrics
Above All
Intro:
You're glorious and victorious; Your Majesty in Zion!
Verse 1:
A regular day it may seem, brother, close your eyes and count your blessings.
A beautiful day to be thankful for the good things He has done.
We won't be ashamed to call upon the Lord, despite those who reject His unconditional love.
We won't bow to the gods of this world, for they have rejected His endless love.
Chorus:
You're glorious and victorious; Your Majesty in Zion.
Seated on Your throne, so glorious, O Majesty in Zion.
Verse 2:
You gave Your life just to save me, Dear Saviour,
I don't have anything worth to give in return.
To show Your love, You died on the cross, O Dear Saviour.
I can't offer anything worth to give in return.
Have my life, if it's worthy, Lord.
Do as You will, it's Yours, O Saviour.
For You are more than worthy, Lord.
All that I am is because of You, Jesus. *Chorus*
