You are exalted Lord above all else
We place You at the highest place above all else
Right now where we stand and ev’rywhere we go
We place You at the highest place
So the world will know
You are a Mighty Warrior
Dressed in armour of light
Crushing the deeds of darkness
Lead us on in the fight
Through the blood of Jesus
Victorious we stand
We place You at the highest place
Above all else in this land
