Refrain:
Great is the Lord, Exalted on High
He is greatly to be praised
Great is the Lord, Exalted on High
He is greatly to be praised
I could have been dead, sleeping in the grave
But He came and saved and made me whole
(So) With my whole heart I’ll praise His Name
For all the great things He’s done for me
You see, once I was lost, deep in sin
Never thought I could live again
I was blinded by the enemy
And his false promises for me
But then Jesus found me, saved me, cleansed me
Washed me, whiter than the snow!
Now I know what true love is
For He gave His life for me
And for the rest of my life, I’ll serve Him
The rest of my life, I’ll serve Him
Proclaiming His greatness to the world
(Refrain)
I could have been dead, sleeping in the grave
But He came and saved and made me whole
With my whole heart I’ll praise His Name
For all the great things He’s done for me (Repeat)
We will abide in You, Lord
Hide in You Lord, Rest in You Lord
Rest in You
Teach us to wait on You
Draw strength from You, Lord
Rest in You Lord, Rest in You Lord
