lyrics

Verse
Listen/ every herd/ every beast/ every bird/ every tree/ all the land/ and the sea/ bear witness to every word that he speaks/ when he tells the water swallow the land/ it obeyed the very second God gave the demand/ when Moses spoke and Korah then disobeyed the command/ God spoke and made the ground beneath them break and expand/ man/ swallowed by nothing but dark/ or what about when he struck uzzah just for touching the ark/ or Ananias and sephira killed while sitting in church/ the thoughts that oughta emerge is he's totally set apart/ too pure for beholding my wicked ways/ bones broken/ arms folded/ I sit and pray/ cuz I know that soon there'll come a day/ when everybody will bow in order to give him praise cuz

Hook
It's for the glory of God Alone/ there'll never be a day when he's not enthroned/ He's made known to us through his son/ and shown us that he's the one/ the only way that our God is known/ he's shown us we're not alone/ he's the light in the dark that we follow home/ when were asked why somebody had to die/ our only reply/ is for the glory of God Alone

Verse
Everybody knows the truth/ we just suppress it/ it's not a matter of no answer to our questions/ that's why his love is always met with aggression/ and his commands brushed off like a suggestion/ we neglected his affection in redemption/ and rejected any conception of election/ our sin debt must be paid by pure perfection/ yet we don't see the glory in his condescension/ in his active pursuit of us from eternity/ how he knows his sheep with absolute certainty/ how he died the death that we all deserved to see/ and every sinner he chooses/ he saves them perfectly

Verse
As we all stand before the throne up in heaven/ what a terrifying thought to be in the midst of his presence/ it's only through the son/ that I am loved and accepted/ because his blood covered every stain/ every blemish/ on that day/ we'll be pronounced as victorious saints/ and all to the praise of his/ glorious grace/ and when creation all falls before him/ offering praise/ I'll follow suit/ in pursuit of our conquering king/ there won't be any attraction to sin/ nothing left in our presence that could distract us from him/ so Haste the day when this wicked flesh is at rest and mortified/ cuz God is most glorified when our satisfaction's in him
