Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All creation cries to you
Worshipping in Spirit and in truth
Glory to the faithful one Jesus Christ God's son
All Creation gives you praise
You alone are truly great
You alone are God who reigns for eternity
God is great and His praise fills the earth fills the heavens
And Your name will be praised through all the world
God is great sing his praise all the earth all the heavens
'cause were living for the Glory of Your name the glory of your name
All to you Oh God we bring
Jesus teach us how to live
Let your fire burn in us
That all may hear and all may see
Holy is the Lord




The whole earth sings
