Verse 1:
You left Your throne for our salvation
Jesus Christ, the hope of our nation
Battered by the weight of our nature
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:
God be praised
Forever we will shout Your Name
Lord over all
You left heaven for earth
Your glory for us
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:
Because I'm alive, I'll give You my life Because I am free, I'll bow at Your feet
Because I am loved, I'm able to love Because I am Yours, my worth is secure
