O God have mercy You're my refuge
Just Your shadow brings me peace
When I cry out then You save me
Heaven send Your faithful love
When brothers fight and words will pierce the soul
When I'm in the lion's den and that becomes my home
This is when Your song must fill my soul
Because Your love will overcome
Don't want to miss this chance to sing to you
Oh I choose to lift You up
Be Exalted O God among the nations of the earth
Every star up in the sky reveals your never-ending worth
Oh Your glory saturates every corner of the ground
We will sing the song of praise because Your faithfulness abounds
Awake my soul arise from sleep
Even in affliction I sense your covering
Awake my song up from the deep
I will trust Your faithfulness even when I don't see
When feelings fade and reality seems bleak
When desire to pray recedes and I find I'm wallowing
This is when Your song must fill my soul
Because Your love will overcome
Don't want to miss this chance to sing to you
Oh I choose to lift You up
Be Exalted O God among the nations of the earth
And every star up in the sky declares your never-ending worth
Oh Your Glory saturates every corner of the ground
We will sing the song of praise because Your faithfulness abounds
Be exalted
Be exalted
When feelings fade and reality seems bleak
When desire to pray recedes and I find I'm wallowing
This is when Your song must fill my soul
Because Your love will overcome
Don't want to miss this chance to sing to you
Oh I choose to lift You up
Be Exalted O God among the nations of the earth
And every star up in the sky declares your never-ending worth
Oh Your Glory saturates every corner of the ground
We will sing the song of praise because Your faithfulness abounds
Be exalted o God
Be exalted o God
Be exalted o God
Be exalted
