You are the reason why I’m here today
You are the reason why I sing Your praise
You are creator of the heavens and earth
So we join with angels and proclaim
You are God of all creation
And the stars above sing alleluia
And together as one voice we declare
You are God
You are forever strong and mighty
You are eternal King of majesty
Even the mountains and the seas below
Cry out holy is the Lord of all
Glory glory in the highest
Glory glory in the highest
By Ben Cantelon & Robin Hardingham
