Lyrics

Verse 1

Solo:
We are your blessed people
Set high above
All the nations of the earth
Blessed are we in the city
Blessed are we in the field

All:
Blessed is the increase of our flocks
And the fruits of our grounds

Solo:
We're blessed in our going out
And our coming in

All:
Blessed are the works of our hands
And our store houses
Blessed are the fruits of our bodies

Chorus

We give glory to you, oh God,
Our creator, Lord and King
The great God by whose word we were recreated
Our great defence
Our buckler and our shield
Strengthener and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens and the earth

Verse 2

Solo:
We are a special kind of people
Our prosperity is to the ends of the earth
Our growth and our increase
Are by your word, your glory and your power

All:
We are your glorious people
That the world can not contain
A species of beings that cannot
Be subjugated
A mystery to principalities and powers
Blessed beyond description

Chorus

We give glory to you, oh God,
Our creator, Lord and King
The great God by whose word we were recreated
Our great defence
Our buckler and our shield
Strengthener and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens and the earth

Bridge

Solo:
The treasures of heaven
You opened to us
Now we lend to nations
And borrow not
The light of the world
And the salt of the earth
You made us in You
Lord Jesus, You are so gracious

All:

Our adversaries shall come
In one way
And flee before us
In seven ways
The whole world shall hear,
See, and know
That we are the called
And the surnamed of the Lord

Solo:

The fear of us is upon the wicked
For greater Is He who is in us
Than he in the world


Chorus

We give glory to you, oh God,
Our creator, Lord and King
The great God by whose word we were recreated
Our great defence
Our buckler and our shield
Strengthener and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens

We give glory to you, oh God,
Our creator, Lord and King
The great God by whose word we were recreated
Our great defence
Our buckler and our shield
Strengthener and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens and the earth
