Itýs the song of the redeemed rising from the African plain

F C G
Itýs the song of the forgiven drowning out the Amazon rain
F C G
The song of Asian believers filled with Godýs holy fire
F C G
It's every tribe, every tongue every nation. A love song born of a grateful
choir

Itýs all Godýs children singing

Chorus

F C G
Glory, glory, Hallelujah, He reigns

F C G
Glory, glory, Hallelujah, He reigns

Verse Two

F C G
Let it rise above the four winds, caught up in the heavenly sound
F C G
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals to the faithful gathered
underground
F C G
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation, some were meant to persist
F C G
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples, none rings truer than this

Chorus

F C G
And all the powers of darkness tremble at what theyýve just heard
F C G
Cause all the powers of darkness canýt drown out a single word

Chorus ad lib
