Lyrics

Verse 1

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

And in the field
Blessed are the fruits of our bodies

Blessed is the increase of our flocks
And the fruits of our grounds
We're blessed in our going out
And our coming in
Blessed are the works of our hands
And our store houses

Pre-chorus

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

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
You're our strength and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens and the earth

Verse 2

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, glory and power

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

Pre-chorus

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

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
You're our strength and keeper
No god like you
In the heavens and the earth

Refrain

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
You are so gracious, oh Lord Jesus
