Let the angels cry holy holy
Let the universe display your majesty
But most of all, Lord, be glorified in me

For me to be silent and let a rock cry out for me
And I will sing of your mercy
And I will sing of your grace
I will sing. I will sing.
With my life, I will sing
With my voice, I will sing
With my heart, I will sing
I will sing. I will sing.
