G   D  Cadd9


[Verse 1]

        G                Cadd9
Were creation suddenly articulate
       G                           
With a thousand tongues to lift one
Cadd9
 cry
          G/B               Cadd9
Then from north to south and east to
 west
           Dsus      D
We'd hear 'Christ be magnified!'

G   D  Cadd9


[Verse 2]

         G                      
Were the whole earth echoing His
Cadd9
 eminence
    G                             
His name would burst from sea and 
Cadd9
sky
     G/B           Cadd9
From rivers to the mountain tops
           Dsus     D        G
We'd hear 'Christ be magnified!'

[Verse 3]

           G                       
When every creature finds its 
    Cadd9
inmost melody
          G                      
And every human heart its native 
Cadd9
cry
          G/B            Cadd9
O then in one enraptured hymn of 
praise
            Dsus            Cadd9
We'll sing 'Christ be magnified!'
             Cadd9
O be lifted high, Jesus


[Chorus]

O! Christ be magnified!

Let His praise arise
          D     C
Christ be magnified in me
G            G2/A   C
O! Christ be magnified!
                 D    Em
From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me

[Bridge]

C
I won't bow to idols
           D
I'll stand strong and worship You
          Em
And if it puts me in the fire
        G/B
I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
   C
I won't be formed by feelings
        D
I hold fast to what is true
         Em
If the cross brings transformation
               G/B
Then I'll be crucified with You
        C
'Cause death is just the doorway
      D
Into resurrection life
         Em
And if I join You in Your suffering
          G/B
Then I'll join You when You rise
         C
And when You return in glory
             D
With all the angels and the saints
   Em
My heart will still be singing
       D
And my song will be the same


[Chorus]

Christ be magnified in me
G            G2/A   C
O! Christ be magnified!
                 D    Em
From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me

Christ be magnified in me

O! Christ be magnified!
                     G/B
From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me
