SPLENDOR AND MAJESTY
(Original Version) *
(I Chronicles 16:24-27)
Splendor and majesty are
before You
Strength and joy in Your dwelling place
We worship You in the beauty of Your holiness
Great are You Lord, most worthy of praise
We declare Your glory, we
declare Your glory
We declare Your glory among the nations
Your love exceeds our wildest dreams
Your power conquers kingdoms
Grace and truth flow from Your throne
Awesome God!!
