From the start
Before You made the earth
And seas and stars
In Your heart we were set apart
Made to worship
If we don’t sing the rocks will soon cry out
By Your Spirit, we are set apart
God of the ages
King of the heavens
Matchless in power and strength
Made for Your glory
Here to adore You
How can we not give praise
Look to Jesus
Through the battle unto victory
By Your power we will overcome
You are the One
No one above You
Who can compare to You
You are the One
No one beside You
Who else deserves our praise
Let Your Church rise
Spirit, let Your fire now run wild
By Your Spirit we have overcome
