And feel it rising loud
A new day’s coming now
A new day’s coming now
So raise your voice
Let’s join and make some noise
For love’s victorious
For love’s victorious
And we live to bring you praise
And we join the heavens to say
The king of all the earth is here
The song of love, the prince of peace
Forever, forever we’ll sing
The king of hope, the king of grace
You gave it all, you took our place
Forever, forever we’ll sing
What can I say?
It takes my breath away
This love amazes me
Amazes me
Jesus Christ
Who gave up even his life
Now rules the universe
The universe
The world is waking
Dawn is breaking
All creation has longed for this day
Love victorious
Hope is glorious
Here’s our song, let it soar, Jesus reigns
I likes it - particularly the chorus! I notice that the first line is lyrically similar to the pre-chorus of God's Romance (Delirious?): "Hear the sound let it shake the ground"
ReplyDeleteOh no! I didn't even notice. I wonder if I need to change that? I'll have to have a think. It is almost word-for-word, isn't it. That sucks. I totally didn't even realise.
ReplyDeleteJust listened to the recording (complete with children in the background :-P). I love the massive dynamic contrast between Chorus 2 and the bridge!
ReplyDeleteThanks mate! Yeah, it's pretty hard to get the kiddies to be quiet. Ah well, I guess the new kingdom will have kids in it, too.
ReplyDeleteJust changed the lyrics. I wouldn't want to steal from Martin Smith, even accidentally!
ReplyDeleteAh well, I guess there are plenty worse people to steal lyrics from!
Hey mate, I love it!
ReplyDeleteI rekcon it often takes a few listens to start to like a new song, but I liked this one by the end of the first listen through!
At first, it seemed like the chorus was a bit rushed, maybe a bit wordy? But the last two times through the chorus seemed fine.
Great work mate!
