PRAISE
Verse 1
I’ll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain
I’ll praise when I’m sure
Praise when I’m doubting
I’ll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
'Cause praise is the water
My enemies drown in
Pre-Chorus
As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to
Chorus 1
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Verse 2
I’ll praise when I feel it
And I’ll praise when I don’t
I’ll praise 'cause I know
You’re still in control
'Cause my praise is a weapon
It’s more than a sound
My praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down
Chorus 2
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Bridge
I’ll praise 'cause You’re sovereign
Praise 'cause You reign
Praise 'cause You rose and defeated the grave
I’ll praise 'cause You’re faithful
Praise 'cause You’re true
Praise 'cause there’s nobody greater than You
Chorus 3
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord oh my soul

Verse 2
And there is peace in the storm in the storm
No don't forget He is Lord He is Lord of all

Open the gates of heaven
Lift up a shout of praise
There is a lion roaring
Jesus the King of glory
Verse 3
So lift your eyes stand in awe stand in awe
There is one only one where my help comes from
Bridge
Nations bow mountains shake
At the sound of just one name
Over all Jesus reigns (I know) I know
THIS IS OUR GOD
Verse 1
Remember those walls that we called sin and shame
They were like prisons that we couldn’t escape
But He came and He died and He rose
Those walls are rubble now
Remember those giants we called death and grave
They were like mountains that stood in our way
But He came and He died and He rose
Those giants are dead now
Chorus
This is our God this is who He is
He loves us
This is our God this is what He does
He saves us
He bore the cross beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God King Jesus
Verse 2
Remember that fear that took our breath away
Faith so weak that we could barely pray
But He heard every word every whisper
Now those altars in the wilderness
Tell the story of His faithfulness
Never once did He fail and He never will
Bridge
Who pulled me out of that pit
He did He did
Who paid for all of our sin
Nobody but Jesus
Bridge
Who rescued me from that grave
Yahweh Yahweh
Who gets the glory and praise
Nobody but Jesus (Him)
Ending
He bore the cross beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God King Jesus

The reign of darkness now has ended
In the kingdom of light

Forever under Your dominion

You reign above it all
Over the universe
And over every heart
There is no higher name

On the cross the work was finished
God You poured out Your life
Just to give us new life
Now from the lips of the forgiven
Hear an anthem arise
'Cause Jesus You’re alive
Chorus 2
Let all of heaven
And the earth erupt in song
Sing hallelujah to the Everlasting One
There is no higher name
Jesus You reign above it all
Bridge
You sent the darkness running
Out of an empty grave
Now seated alone in glory
Enthroned on the highest praise

The wages of my sin was death
You knew I couldn't pay the debt

No shame is stronger than Your love

Let all the earth cry out
Lift up a holy sound
Give all the glory now
To Jesus' Name Jesus' Name
HOW GREAT THOU ART

O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow'r thru'out
The universe displayed

Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art

And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin
Verse 4
When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
My God how great Thou art
