Christ Be Magnified
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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! '
Sing this chorus with me 'o! 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
Then in one enraptured hymn of praise
We'll sing 'Christ be magnified! '
(Be magnified in us, lord, singin')
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
Everything I have is yours
Surrendered, here at your feet, father
Sing this with me 'I won't bow to idols'
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 you can hang me there 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
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
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
