Monument
Andrea Olson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Amazed by all You’ve done
Building an altar
I will remember
So I lay down my life
A living sacrifice
I’m on the altar
Here I surrender
In every situation
And here we build a monument
That every generation
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
You see me through the fire
You sing me through the night
This is an altar
To You forever
We will not forget Your faithfulness
In every situation
And here we build a monument
That every generation
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
Come and see what the Lord has done
Come and worship
He is worthy
God of wonder and miracles
There is none like Him
Come and see what the Lord has done
Come and worship
He is worthy
God of wonder and miracles
There is none like Him
We will not forget Your faithfulness
In every situation
And here we build a monument
That every generation
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
Will know who You are
