Lyrics:
The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty
Let all the Earth rejoice
All the Earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
Trembles at His voice
Chorus:
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God
Solo:
Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end
Beginning and the end
The Godhead Three in One
Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb
The Lion and the Lamb

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Worthy of our praise
My heart will sing

You're the name above all name
You are worthy of our praise
And my heart will sing

How great is our God
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God.
