God Be Praised

written by Mack Brock, Chris Brown, Wade Joye & Jane Williams


Intro: [A]
Verse 1:
D
You left Your throne for our salvation
     A
Jesus Christ, the hope of our nation
       D
Battered by the weight of our nature
A
For our crimes You came to save

Verse 2:
God of the world, You walked among us
Covered in flesh, in all of our weakness
You were despised, embarrassed, and lonely
Through Your shame we came alive
Chorus:
 Bm
God be praised
Bm
Forever we will shout Your Name
A
Lord over all
Bm
You left heaven for earth
   A
Your glory for us
         A
Risen King be lifted high


Verse 3:
Out of the dark, and into Your likeness
Caught in hope, a love so relentless
Called by name, Your sons and Your daughters
Bought with a price, we are alive

Bridge:
G
Because I'm alive, I'll give You my life
G
Because I am free, I'll bow at Your feet
G
Because I am loved, I'm able to love
G
Because I am Yours, my worth is secure
