Magnificent
Hillsong Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who compares to You?
Who set the stars in their place?
You who calmed the raging seas
That came crashing over me

Who compares to You?
You who bring the morning light
The hope of all the earth
Is rest assured in Your great love

You are magnificent
Eternally wonderful, glorious
Jesus, no one ever will compare
To You, Jesus

Where the evening fades
You call forth songs of joy
As the morning wakes
We, Your children give You praise

You are magnificent
Eternally wonderful, glorious
Jesus, no one ever will compare

You are magnificent
Eternally wonderful, glorious
Jesus, no one ever will compare (Jesus, Jesus)
To You, Jesus, oh yeah

Jesus
No one ever will compare
You're so wonderful, you, you
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus (Jesus)

No one ever will compare

You are magnificent
Eternally wonderful, glorious
Jesus, no one ever will compare

You are magnificent
Eternally wonderful, glorious (oh-oh)
Jesus, no one ever will compare
To You, Jesus (oh Jesus, oh)
No one ever will compare
To You, Jesus

Oh Jesus, oh Jesus, oh Jesus
You're so wonderful (to You Jesus)
No one ever will compare




To You, Jesus
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus, oh-oh
