WERE THERE WORDS ENOUGH TO PRAISE YOU
Were there songs enough to sing
Were there ways enough to thank You
for the things You’ve done
Then I would give You everything
If only every heart would lift You
If only every voice would sing
If only all the earth would raise a holy hallelujah
From everyone and everything
Strong deliverer, friend and king
Abba Father, let the whole world sing
Of Your holiness and Your unending love
I will lift my life to You, I will lift You up
There will be words enough to praise
You There will be words enough to sing
There will be ways enough to thank You
For the things You’ve done
And we will offer everything
For one day every heart will lift You
One day every voice will sing
One day from the streets
We’ll hear a holy hallelujah
From everyone and everything
With all I am and all I’m not
With all I am and all I’m not
I have come to lift You up (x3)
