Lyrics of The Church – UPPERROOM and Bethel Music feat. Abbie Gamboa, Jenn Johnson and Kristian Stanfill
VERSE 1
For the different ways we see You
For all the ways You move
All the colors and expressions
Oh the beauty of Your Church
What a masterful reflection
When we are unified
Truly celebrate each other and let go of our pride
PRE-CHORUS
That You would have a spotless bride
CHORUS
Oh praise the Father, praise the Son
Holy Spirit, make us one
Every nation, tribe and tongue
This is our cry, Your Kingdom come
VERSE 2
We surrender our agendas
Our preferences, our plans
Would You help us work together
To be Your feet and hands
Our heart is just to know You
To show them who You are
The Gospel’s still the answer for every searching heart
BRIDGE
Brothers, sisters under the banner of Your Name
Mothers, fathers under the banner of Your Name
All Your children, all for the glory of Your Name
VERSE 3
For every story of revival
Every miracle we’ve seen
It’s a glimpse of what is coming
So by faith help us believe
And we know the day is coming
When we will see Your face
Every knee will bow before
You and every heart will say
TAG
Lord hear our cry, Your will be done
This is our cry, Your Kingdom come
