LYRICS

Verse 1

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

Verse 2

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

Chorus

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

Verse 3

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

Chorus

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

Bridge 1

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

Bridge 2

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

Bridge 3

'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

Bridge 4

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

Chorus

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
