Everyone around the world
Hear the joyful sound
See the heavens open up
Hear the music coming down
Nothing’s gonna separate us from the Father’s love
I can’t help but celebrate
‘Cause we’re not alone
If God is on our side
Who can be against us
If God is on our side
We won’t be afraid
Though the mountains may fall
And the sky will crumble
There ain’t nothin’ gonna stand in our way
Come on down to the riverside
Wash it all away
Leave behind your troubled mind
For an uncloudy day
Nothing’s gonna separate us from the Father’s love
I can’t help but celebrate
‘Cause we’re not alone
