Lyrics
Honour His Name
Verse 1:
Open the gates and let the King of Glory come in.
Open the gates let us honour and worship the Father of Truth.
Verse 2:
Lift up your voice in praise to our God.
Lift up your voice to honour the Lamb that was slain;
The Lamb that was slain,
And now lives.
Chorus:
Amazing is the Lord on high.
(He's Amazing! Lord, You're Amazing!)
Come, sing to His glory; let's honour His name.
(He's Amazing! Lord, You're Amazing!)
Verse 3:
In His full glory, He will return,
To judge both day and night,
And reward the pure in heart.
And with Him comes a new world of peace and love,
A place for the faithful.
Chorus:
Amazing is the Lord on high.
(He's Amazing! Lord, You're Amazing!)
Come, sing to His glory; let's honour His name.
(He's Amazing! Lord, You're Amazing!)
Bridge:
Glory to You, Lord.
Amazing You are, God.
Your garment heals the sick; Your words comfort our hearts.
Hallelujah to the Lord!
Glorious is our God.
His garment heals the sick; His words comfort our hearts.
Chorus:
Amazing is the Lord on high.
(He's Amazing! Lord, You're Amazing!)
Come, sing to His glory; let's honour His name.
