ON HOLY GROUND we stand before
The King of kings and Lord of all
Where saints have walked this road before
Carried their cross through heaven’s door
To the King of heaven all the angles sing
I will join the song
An ancient melody
A song that I will sing
For all eternity
It’s all around the world
Hearts in harmony
Worship to the King
Who reigns eternally
I will join the song and sing
Awake O church lift up your eyes
Let your light shine for all mankind
Holding the flame of truth and life
One heart one voice now unified
To the King of heaven all creation sings
I will join the song and sing
Worship to the King of Kings
